If you are looking to provide access to Omni content to external users, most likely you will want to take advantage of [embedded functionality](https://docs.omni.co/docs/embed/external-embedding).

However in some cases, you may wish to provide very limited access directly to Omni to a user or group of users. This is possible, but requires adjusting permissions for your environment as a whole.

_We highly recommend using [Groups](https://docs.omni.co/docs/administration/user-groups) to manage access in bulk rather then at the individual level._

### Recommended Settings

Update these default settings:

- Content Organization - Shared “Root” is open: `OFF`
- Content Sharing default: `No Access`
- Connection default permissions: `Viewer`

**New users** : Provision a user account for them, and add them to a group with permissions to access the individual piece(s) of content or folders you want them to have access to. You can also manage individual users but it is generally most efficient to use groups.

Depending on the use case, you may also wish to consider the following settings:

- Under Settings → Content Permissions, you can toggle on `Require all deliveries personalize to recipient` to force user attributes to be applied to Deliveries

- Work with Omni Support to enable 3 feature flags:

### Migrating Current Users and Content

**Existing users** : construct user groups for old permission scheme for easier updating in the future. Add users to the relevant permissions groups to ensure their access is correct. Ensure proper folders and documents have been shared with the relevant users and groups.

**Existing Content** : Place in folders for easier bulk permission controls, adjust to organization wide permissions to `No Access` to ensure external users cannot see the reports.
