How to lock documents and who can view them

Help Guide
Updated by Help Guide

What can you do

Documents, unlike batches, do not automatically lock when a user opens them.  You may exclude them from search results for all users, except individuals with permissions to view those documents

You will need View Locked Documents permission for a catalog to perform this operation.

  1. Search for Content
  2. Open Content
  3. Click on Lock

This excludes the document from search results.  It does not physically lock the document.  Any user that can view the locked document in the search results, may also open it.
