You can open your help centre to everyone, share it by link only, or limit access to specific email domains. These settings live in your project workspace under **Settings** → **Visibility**.

## Prerequisites

- You are signed in to SupportPages with access to the project
- Your help centre has at least one published article (optional, but useful for testing access)

## Steps

### Step 1: Open Settings

Open your project workspace and click **Settings** at the bottom of the left sidebar.

### Step 2: Go to Visibility

In the settings sidebar, under **Help centre**, click **Visibility**.

### Step 3: Choose who can access your help centre

Pick one of the three access options: **Open to anyone, including search engines & AI** for a public, discoverable site; **Open to anyone with the link** for a public site that stays out of search engines and AI assistants; or **Restricted to specific email domains** to require a work-email sign-in for approved domains only.

### Step 4: Add allowed email domains (restricted only)

If you chose restricted access, enter your approved domains in **Allowed email domains** — comma-separated, like `acme.com, acme.co.uk`. Visitors verify their email with a magic link; only matching domains get in.

### Step 5: Save your changes

Click **Save visibility** at the bottom of the form. Your help centre access rules update right away.

## Tips

- Use **Open to anyone with the link** when you want a public help centre that does not appear in Google or AI search results.
- Restricted access is a good fit for internal or customer-only docs — add every domain your readers use, including regional variants.

## Summary

Open **Settings**, choose **Visibility**, pick the access level that fits your audience, add allowed domains if you chose restricted access, and click **Save visibility**. You can change this any time as your audience grows.
