Folder visibility controls
BetaWorkspaceReleased Feb 2026Plan not verifiedSource: docs.lovable.dev
Folder visibility controls is Lovable's Workspace feature: You can now set folder visibility to: You can only configure visibility on the top-level folder.
You can now set folder visibility to: You can only configure visibility on the top-level folder. Nested folders inherit the visibility of their parent folder. Projects inside a folder inherit that folder’s visibility and their visibility can no longer be set independently. When moving a project, an access preview shows who will gain or lose access, and you can remove redundant collaborators during the move.
How it works
How Folder visibility controls works, drawn only from its official release notes.
What it does
You can now set folder visibility to: You can only configure visibility on the top-level folder.

Who gets it
The source does not say which plans include it. Check your workspace before relying on it.
Example workflows
Starting points built from this record, not transcripts of a run. Each prompt is written the way it should be sent, as one paragraph, and each is worth editing before you send it.
Stand it up from scratch
You have read the record and want Folder visibility controls working in a real project rather than a sandbox.
Set up Folder visibility controls in this project — you can now set folder visibility to: You can only configure visibility on the top-level folder. It is still in beta, so build the smallest version that proves it works, tell me exactly what you changed, and flag anything I have to switch on myself.
Expected outcomeA working setup, a plain list of what changed, and a short list of anything left for you to switch on. Check that list before assuming it is done.
Review it before you publish
Folder visibility controls is wired in and you are about to put it in front of people. This is the pass that catches the half-configured version.
Review how this project uses Folder visibility controls before I publish. Check workspace visibility: All workspace members can see and add projects to the folder and private visibility: Only you can see and add projects to the folder, list anything that is missing, misconfigured, or only half wired, fix what is safe to fix, and tell me what you left alone and why.
Expected outcomeA findings list split into what was fixed and what was left, with a reason for each. Anything left alone is yours to decide on.
Decide whether it fits your project
Worth five minutes before you wire anything in. Folder visibility controls sits in Workspace, and not every project needs it.
I am building the project in this workspace. Given that Folder visibility controls you can now set folder visibility to: You can only configure visibility on the top-level folder, tell me honestly whether it fits what I am building, including the cases where I should not use it. If it does fit, give me the single smallest first step.
Expected outcomeA direct yes or no with the reasoning, the cases against it, and one first step. Treat a hedged answer as a no.
