Restrict stream creation

This feature is only available to organization administrators.

By default, anyone other than guests can create new streams. However, you can restrict stream creation to

  • Organization administrators, or
  • Organization administrators, and members with accounts at least N days old, for any N.

For corporations and other entities with controlled access, we highly recommend keeping stream creation open. A typical uKnowva Messenger organization with heavy use has as many streams as users.

For large uKnowva Messengers where anyone can join, we recommend restricting stream creation to those with accounts at least a few days old (we suggest starting with N = 3), to make it easier to cope with spammers and confused users.

  1. Go to Organization permissions.

  2. Under Other permissions, configure Who can create streams.

  3. Click Save changes.
