Set Sharing Defaults
You will be prompted to select from one of three sharing default options in a pop-up modal.
Hidden: Your partners cannot see this population.
Overlap counts: Your partners will see the number of overlaps that exist for this population. No specifics about the overlaps, including name or any other data, are shared.
Sharing data: your partners can see the data shared with them for all overlaps with this population.
✍️ Note
Crossbeam recommends setting Sharing Defaults to Hidden or Overlapping counts and later adjusting the sharing settings for each partner depending on the use case.
After selecting a Sharing Default, click Next. In the next window, confirm the sharing default and click Save.
Once you return to the Population page, you will now see the new Custom Population added to the list of Populations.
