# Your workspace is managed by a partner

> What it means when a partner manages your Quint workspace, what the partner can see, how you are told, and how to end their access.

If a managed security provider or reseller brought you to Quint, your workspace records that partner as its manager. You own the workspace. The partner can watch its posture and, when needed, look at your dashboard in a read-only view. Nothing a partner does can change anything in your workspace.

## What the partner can see

* **A posture snapshot** of your workspace on the partner's board: machine counts, enforcement mode, open incident count, last heartbeat and policy version. Never your events, machines by name, or people.
* **A read-only view of your dashboard** when a partner operator opens it. A banner stays at the top of their view: "Read-only view by *partner* as *operator email*", with the reason they gave and the time left. Inside, the operator can read what a member with the **Read** role can read. Every control that changes something is hidden, and a request that tries is refused.

## How you are told

* Your **Overview** shows a **Managed workspace** strip: "This workspace is managed by *partner*. *contact name* is the customer of record." with **Operated by**, **Customer of record** and **Sector**.
* The first time in a day that a partner opens your workspace, your contact of record receives an email. It names the partner, the operator, the reason they gave, how long the session lasts, and carries a one-click link that ends the access.
* Every open is recorded in your **Audit Trail** under the operator's name. Later opens on the same day are recorded but not emailed again.

## How to end access

Open **Settings › Partner access**.

| Action | Effect |
| - | - |
| **End now** on a live session | Ends that one session. The operator's next request is refused. Standing access stays in place. |
| **Revoke access** | Ends every live session from that partner and removes their standing access. They cannot open your workspace again until access is granted again. |
| The link in the notice email | Ends the session it names. It works once, while the session is live. |

If no partner holds access, the section reads "No partner holds access to this workspace and no partner session is open."

## What a partner session cannot do

A partner operator cannot change a policy, arm or disarm enforcement, decide an approval, invite or remove a member, change settings, or send data into your workspace. Approvals are not visible to a partner session at all; the Approvals page says so: "Partner access cannot see or decide approvals. Someone in this organization has to."

## Your own account is unchanged

Everything on the rest of this site applies to you exactly as it does to a customer Quint sells to directly. Your roles, tokens, integrations and policies are yours. Your partner's [baseline policy](https://docs.quintai.dev/partners/baseline-policies.md), where one applies, appears in your **Policies** page alongside your own rules.
