We are excited to announce another layer of security for the Power Pages website by introducing site visibility feature with website version 9.4.9.xx<\/p>\n\n\n
The Power Pages site visibility function enables makers to manage who has access to the website. Authorized makers can make the site private<\/strong> to restrict access to specific people in organization, or public<\/strong> so that anyone with the link has access.<\/p>\n\n\n All new sites created in Power Pages and Power Apps portals are Private by default. When a website is ready to go live, the site visibility can be changed to Public.<\/p>\n\n\n The site visibility feature brings new capabilities for makers and administrators:<\/p>\n\n\n When you create a new site in Power Pages home page it is private by default. The new website has restricted access over the internet and only the members with system administrator role preview the site. Maker receives notification of site visibility status on home page and across all the studio designers.<\/p>\n\n\n Site owners can grant website access to other users in the organization during the design phase at Set up workspace.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n Editing the live site will have a negative impact on customers who are working on the website. When a maker opens a public site for editing, they are notified that edits will apply to the live site<\/p>\n\n\n When a new site is created, users with the system administrator role and service admins<\/a> have default privileges to change site’s visibility status. Admins can grant or revoke this privilege for system administrators at tenant level by running a PowerShell script. Additionally, to provide granular control on who can change the site visibility status, admins can delegate the permissions to specific system administrators in certain Azure Directory security groups.<\/p>\n\n As we continue to enhance Power Pages offerings, would love to hear your feedback<\/a>.\u00a0 For more information, visit the detailed documentation for site visibility<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n
