PatchForge — Sharing Designs With Your Team

  • Can I share my designs with my team?

    Yes. In Settings › Sharing you approve your company's email domain — for example acme.com. Anyone with a verified PatchForge account on that domain can then see the designs you have shared. You choose how much they see: your entire library, only designs carrying a particular tag, or a ...
  • Can I share with one specific person instead of a whole domain?

    Not yet. Today a share covers an email domain, so it reaches anyone with an address at that domain. Per-person sharing by email address is planned.
  • Can someone I share with change or delete my design?

    No. People you share with can view a design, download it, or save their own separate copy to edit. There is no way for them to modify, rename or delete your file — PatchForge has no function that writes to someone else's design at all.

    Yes — they need their own account with their work email verified, and their own active plan. The domain approval controls what they can see; it is not a way to give someone access to PatchForge itself.
  • How do I share only some of my designs?

    Tag the designs you want to share (tags are on each design in your Library), then add the domain with the scope set to Designs with a tag and pick that tag. Only designs carrying it are visible. Adding the tag to another design later shares that one too, automatically — and removing the tag takes...
  • What happens when I revoke a domain?

    They lose access to your designs immediately — the shared designs disappear from their library. Copies they already saved stay in their own library, because those are their files now. You can see exactly who copied what, and when, in the Copies list on the same Sharing settings page.
  • Why will it not accept gmail.com (or outlook, icloud, yahoo)?

    Approving a domain says "everyone with a mailbox here is part of my team". That is only true for a domain your organization actually controls. Anyone in the world can create a gmail.com address, so approving it would share your library with everyone. Personal and disposable email providers are re...
