About data rooms

Data rooms are persistent document sharing spaces, designed for recurring and secure exchanges within an organization or with external partners.

What is a data room for?

Unlike a one-time transfer (which expires), a data room is a permanent space in which you can:

  • Upload and organize documents
  • Invite multiple people with distinct access levels
  • Keep a version history of each file
  • Track accesses and downloads (audit)
  • Update documents without generating new links

Example use cases: due diligence, sharing legal documents, collaboration with auditors, delivery of client deliverables.

Creating a data room

  1. Go to Dashboard > Data rooms
  2. Click on New data room
  3. Give it a name and an optional description
  4. Invite members with the appropriate permissions

Storage quota

The storage consumed by files in a data room is charged to the owner's quota — not to that of contributing members. This applies even if it is another member who uploaded the file.

Keep this in mind before inviting external contributors to upload large files to a data room you own.
