Scripto is built for collaboration, but we know that sometimes people want to write on their own before they share their draft. Members of our paid workspaces have a Private section in the Dashboard where they can create documents and folders that no one else in the workspace can see or edit.
Exploring the Folder Browser
Here you'll see four folders:
⭐️ Collections is the hub for quick navigation based on your activity - My Favorites, My History and Workspace History.
👥 Shared is home to your workspace's collaborative work area. All workspace members can access the folders and documents in the Shared folder.
🔒 Private is your own personal work area. Here you can create private documents and private folders that no one else in the workspace can see or edit. Whenever you're ready for other workspace members to collaborate, share it with the workspace, which will move it out of the private folders and into the shared folders.
🗑️ Trash is...trash. Your scripts will be there eternally for retrieval. If you really want them gone, click the ⠇and select 'Delete Permanently'. From this menu you can also 'Add to My Favorites' or 'Restore'.
Creating Private Documents and Folders
You can tell private documents apart from shared documents because they have a blue private key icon.
When a folder is selected under Private, click the + to create a new subfolder or document.
Moving Private Scripts and Folders
You can organize your private workspace in much the same way that you can organize shared docs and folders.
You can put scripts into folders and folders into folders, with as many levels of private folders and sub-folders as you like.
Click on the ⠇menu of the script or folder you want to move and select
MoveSelect the destination where you want to move the script or folder.
Click
OKto confirm your choice.
📌 The Move action is only for organizing items within your private workspace. If you want to move a private document out of the private folders and into the shared folders, you have to Share them.
Sharing Private Scripts with the Workspace
There are two ways to share a private script:
From the Folder Browser
Open the ⠇menu for the script you want to share and select
Share
Pick the folder in the Shared workspace where you want to move the document and click
OK.Note that in this view you’ll be reminded that once shared, a document can no longer be made private again.
2. From the Script
In the lower-right corner, next to the page count, click the private / blue key icon to open the Script Access menu.
Click the purple Share with entire workspace button
Select the shared folder where you want to move the document and click
OK
📌 Sharing a document will move it out of your private folders and into the workspace's shared folders.
📌 Once you share a document, you can't make it private again.
📌 You cannot share a private folder. You have to move each document individually.
