Upgrade Details
Private & Public Archives
When you upgrade to a Collaborative Archive, you choose to make it “Public” or “Private”. Public Archives are a great choice if you want to:
- connect to others with common interests
- allow all Kindex users to contribute by Adding, Indexing, and Sharing records within your archive
- allow your records to be searched by anyone
Private archives are a great choice if you want to:
- limit access to only yourself and your Collaborators
Note: all archives, whether public or private, may share records on a publicly shareable link. For more information on different user roles within Public and Private archives, see our FAQ.
