By default, any person logged into Built can view limited profile data for each of their coworkers and view, but not export, the org chart.

To choose whose data is visible and if people can export the org chart:

Note: Only Company Admins and HR Admins can edit company settings. Learn more about managing user roles and permissions.

  1. Click your company name at the top of the main navigation, then click Company Settings.

  2. Click the Permissions tab.

    Note: If the Permissions tab is not initially visible, click the More dropdown.

  3. Locate the Org Chart Permissions section and click the Edit button.

  4. Click the dropdown to select who people can view:

    • Everyone: This option lets people see everyone in your organization on the org chart, directory, and calendar.

    • Chart Section: This option restricts access to view only those in the same chart section.

    • All Subordinates: This option restricts access to view only those who are subordinates.

    • Direct Reports: This option restricts access to view only a person's direct reports.

    • Only Themselves: This option restricts access to only their own profile. Neither the org chart nor the directory appears when this option is selected.

      Note: Your selection will only limit an admin’s visibility beyond the scope of their assigned permissions. To learn more, refer to the Admin Role Summary.

  5. Confirm if people can export the org chart by selecting Yes or No.

    Note: Individuals can only export data they’re permitted to view.

  6. Click Save.

Note: If you allow people to see others within your organization, they can only see a very limited profile of other individuals, including name, title, photo, and basic contact information. No sensitive or personal information will be shown.
