## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What’s the difference between workspace members and project viewers?">
    Workspace members can create, edit, and publish projects. Typically these are members of a design team. Project viewers are not workspace members, they are individuals that have access to view published projects via the live web URL.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I add a client or outside partner to my workspace?">
    Yes, anyone can be added to workspaces. Keep in mind all members of a workspace can browse, manage, see comments, and enter the editor of all projects within the workspace. We suggest creating a new workspace to invite clients and outside partners to.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can viewers leave comments?">
    No. Comments are added within a project’s editor, not from the live website URL. The Commenter role can only leave and review comments, and is ideal for collaborators when working as a team.
