Team visibility
How departments and groups get an operating view scoped to what they should see.
Different teams need different views of the same business — and some numbers aren't for everyone. Canvasm lets you serve both from one canvas.
One map, many views
You don't keep a separate spreadsheet per team. You build the map once and let groups and access tags decide who sees what (see Groups & visibility).
Give each team its operating view
- Define groups for your audiences — Finance, Marketing, Exec, an external partner.
- Tag sensitive cards with an access tag whose audience is only the groups allowed to see them (e.g. cost and margin cards visible to Finance and Exec).
- Scope a dashboard to an audience so it shows only that audience's permitted metrics.
Now Marketing opens a dashboard full of funnel metrics; Finance opens one with margin; the Exec view spans both — all from the same canvas.
Restricted stays restricted
When you share a canvas or dashboard, anything outside the viewer's audience is redacted — filtered out of the view and any embed. As an owner you can see "N restricted metrics are hidden for this audience" so there are no surprises.
Role and view are different
Being an Editor lets someone change the canvas; it doesn't automatically let them see restricted cards. Capability and visibility are set separately.
What you've learned
Build once, then use groups + access tags to give each team a scoped operating view — without leaking restricted numbers through a share.
