Who has permission to edit content on a board that is set to "view only"?

In a scenario where a board is set to "view only," the permissions for editing content are restricted to enhance the integrity of the data presented. The only individuals who have the authority to modify the content in such a case are the board owners. Board owners hold higher permissions that allow them to manage the board, including the ability to change settings, edit items, and manage who has access to the board.

While board members may have the ability to view the board, their permissions are limited under a "view only" setting, meaning they cannot make changes. Workspace admins and account users also do not possess edit rights on a board restricted to viewing, unless they are specifically designated as board owners. This clear structure of permissions ensures that data remains unchanged by unauthorized users while still allowing owners the control they need to manage the board effectively.
