What are Pipeline Permissions?
Pipeline Permissions adds role-based access control to the Opportunities > Pipelines area. Admins can decide which users or roles may view, edit, or have no access to each individual pipeline. This granular visibility keeps data secure and lets sales teams focus only on the deals that matter to them.
Key Benefits of Pipeline Permissions
- Protect sensitive revenue data by hiding entire pipelines from unauthorized users.
- Eliminate “pipeline clutter” so reps only work the opportunities relevant to them.
- Maintain CRM consistency—permissions apply across web app, mobile app, and API.
- Meet compliance requirements with a full audit trail of every permission change.
Sharing Modes
- Use the lock-icon “Manage Permissions” button beside any pipeline to select the best mode.

- Share with all users – grant everyone View Only or Edit access in one click.
- Share with selected users – pick individual users/roles and set View, Edit, or No Access for each.
- Exclude specific users – keep the pipeline global, then remove access for a few exceptions.

Access Levels
- View Only – move and update opportunities, but cannot add/edit/delete stages or pipelines.
- Edit – full control to add, edit, and delete pipeline stages (including the pipeline itself).
- No Access – the pipeline is completely hidden in web, mobile, and API responses.

You can set the default to View Only or Edit.
