Private Conversations

By default, conversations with a shared agent are visible to everyone on your team who can use that agent. Sometimes you don’t want that — a draft performance review, a salary analysis, a half-formed idea. Mark the conversation private and it’s yours.

  1. In the workspace sidebar, hover the conversation and open its menu
  2. Choose Make private

A lock icon appears next to the conversation. Choose Make shared from the same menu to open it back up.

Only the conversation’s creator (or an org owner/admin) can change its visibility.

A private conversation is hidden from other members everywhere:

  • It doesn’t appear in their conversation list
  • Live updates about it never reach their workspace
  • It sends notifications only to you

Org owners and admins retain access — private hides a thread from teammates, it doesn’t put it outside your organization’s governance.

  • The agent is unchanged. It keeps its integrations, knowledge, and workspace files — files an agent writes in its computer are part of the agent, not the conversation.
  • Customer and guest conversations have their own visibility rules and aren’t affected by this toggle.
  • Existing conversations stay shared until you explicitly make them private.
