Sharing Projects

Wayaframe includes a dedicated sharing panel for inviting collaborators and managing project access.

Invite Collaborators

From the share panel, the current workflow lets you invite collaborators by email.

When you add a collaborator, you choose one of these permission levels:

• View
• Comment
• Edit

The share panel validates email addresses, blocks self-invites, and prevents duplicate invitations.

Manage Access

The current share panel separates project access into:

• The project owner
• Accepted collaborators
• Pending invites

From the same panel, the owner can:

• Change collaborator permissions
• Remove collaborators
• Remove pending invites

The current UI also makes it explicit that only the project owner can invite or remove collaborators.

Personal Collaboration Preferences

Wayaframe includes per-project personal preferences inside the share panel too.

The current preference controls include:

• Comment email notifications
• Live collaboration visibility for that project

These settings let each collaborator tune how much collaboration activity they want to see or receive.

Accept A Shared Project

Wayaframe includes a browser-based invite-accept page for shared projects.

The current invite flow supports:

• Opening the desktop app through a Wayaframe deep link
• Continuing in the browser
• Accepting the invite after sign-in

On desktop, accepted invites can sync the shared project into the local workspace so it appears alongside other projects.

Resolve sync issues

When a cloud sync fails, a Sync failed status appears next to the project name in the editor header. Click Resolve to open the sync issue modal.

The modal explains what went wrong. Common causes include:

• Another collaborator made newer changes while you were editing.
• A version conflict between your local project and the cloud.
• Some project assets failed to upload.

You have two options:

• Retry Sync: attempts to upload your local changes to the cloud again. Use this if the failure was temporary (e.g. a network issue).
• Use Cloud Version: discards your local changes since the last successful sync and pulls the latest cloud version. A progress modal shows the download and apply stages.

WARNING

Pulling from the cloud replaces local changes since the last successful sync. If you have important unsaved edits, try Retry Sync first.

Resync from Cloud

If a shared project gets out of sync or you want to ensure you have the latest version, open the project menu inside the editor and select Resync from Cloud.

A progress modal appears with three stages:

1. Fetching the latest project data from the cloud.
2. Updating project assets and media references.
3. Applying the cloud version to your local project.

Resync replaces your local project data with the cloud version. Any local changes that haven't been synced will be lost. The modal can be closed while the resync continues in the background.

This option is available to anyone with access to the shared project, not just the owner. It is disabled if the project has no active cloud backup or a resync is already in progress.

Stop Sharing

To permanently remove cloud sharing, open the project menu and select Stop sharing, revert to local. This option is only available to the project owner.

A confirmation dialog explains what will happen:

• Your local project and local media files stay on this device.
• Online collaborators are disconnected immediately.
• Other users lose the project and its downloaded shared media when they next open the app.

Click Stop sharing to confirm. Wayaframe deletes the cloud copy, revokes all collaborator access, and clears all sync state. Your local project remains intact and becomes a local-only project. This action cannot be undone.
