Agents with this restriction can only view contacts assigned to themselves in the Mine Inbox. The agent won't be able to view unassigned contacts and contacts assigned to someone else.
For agents with the above restrictions, Contact views are accessible but they may not see the same Contact count as others if the view has Contacts they cannot access. The Contact view will only list the Contacts they are allowed to view.
Agents with this restriction cannot see the Workflows icon in the messaging module. Hence, agents cannot initiate a Shortcut or view Ongoing Workflows.
Agents with this restriction will not be able to completely see a Contact’s Phone Number and/or Email Address.
Agents can add a phone number or email if the Contact’s profile does not initially have one, but cannot update them once this information has been added. To update them, agents need to seek assistance from their manager
Note that this option is only available for Enterprise plans.
To revoke a user's access to your Space, press their respective Revoke Access button. This will open up the Revoke Access menu.
Revoking a User's access will remove them from your Workspace. By default, any Contacts that were previously assigned to this User will be marked as unassigned. If you want these Contacts to be assigned to another User, enable the checkbox option and select a User to assign Contacts to from a dropdown menu.
When revoking a User's access, their access to the Organization will remain. If you need to remove them from the Organization, please refer to this guide.
Be careful when you revoke a user's access. This action cannot be undone.
Click the Edit button to open up the Edit User menu and make changes to your existing users on your Workspace.
You can only make changes to a user's access level. Once you are done, press the blue UPDATE button to save any changes that you made.

How can I change a user’s email in my Workspace?
To change a user’s email, add a new user with the new email and provide them with the same access level as the user with the email you want to change.
Learn how to add a new user here. If an email is obsolete, you can delete the user by following the instructions here.
If the user has organization-level access, we recommend configuring their user details following these steps. When an organization-level user's details are changed, it will be reflected in all the Workspaces that the user has access to.
