Collection Permissions
Collection permissions determine what actions a group or member can take with the items in a particular collection, including whether they can directly modify items in a collection or whether they can change who has access to the collection. Refer to the table on this page for more information on what actions each permission grants.
Collection permissions can, depending on your organization's settings, be altered by up to three types of user:
Members with the Manage collection permission for a collection can alter the permissions assigned to groups and members for that specific collection.
Custom role members with the Edit any collection permission can alter the permissions assigned to groups and members for any collection.
If the Owners and admins can manage all collections and items setting is on, all owners and admins can alter the permissions assigned to groups and members for any collection.
tip
The Member access report can be used by Enterprise organizations to download a comprehensive .csv detailing what groups a member is in, what collections they have access to, their level of permission within each assigned collection, and more.
Permissions table
note
While member role can only set at an individual-member level, permissions can either be set for an individual member or for a group as a whole. Permissions set at a member level will supercede permissions set at a group level.

Hidden passwords permissions: Hiding passwords prevents easy copy-and-paste, however it does not completely prevent user access to this information. Treat hidden passwords as you would any shared credential.
