What you can do in communities

You can do different things depending on whether your community is public or private.

General info on public communities

  • Google Workspace users can no longer create new public communities outside their domain. They will only be able to create new private communities outside their domain (invite-only), and only Google Workspace users can join.
  • Public communities can’t be made private later.
  • For existing public communities, anyone in your domain can ask to join. But if someone obtains an active invite link, they can join the community without asking to join.
  • Public communities can be seen by anyone online and can be found in searches.
  • Anyone can see the community's members and posts.
  • If you create a new public community, it will be restricted to your organization. These domain-restricted public communities can’t be seen by people outside the domain.

General info on private communities

  • Private communities can’t be made public later.
  • Anyone with access to an active invite link can join the community.
  • Only members and invitees can see who belongs to a private community.
    • Non-members can see activity by both members and non-members on public posts in private communities. 
  • The privacy settings available to you depend on your administrator’s Currents settings for your organization.

Private communities and searches

If a private community does not show in searches:

  • Anyone with access to an active invite link can join the community.
  • People might find a link to the community on other web pages.
  • Google Workspace users with a link to the community might see the community name and photo. 
  • Google Workspace users with a link to the community might be able to ask to join the community.
  • If a private community doesn’t allow people to ask to join, then new members have to be invited.
