The Client Reviewer portal
What a Client Reviewer sees and does in their dedicated portal: review the content shared with them for a project, comment, and approve or request changes — nothing else.
The Client Reviewer Portal is a dedicated, review-only space for clients and stakeholders. A Client Reviewer signs in there to review the content shared with them for a project — and nothing else. This page explains the portal for reviewers and the teams who invite them.
Who this is for
Client Reviewers using the portal, and the Owners and Admins who invite them.
How a reviewer gets in
A Client Reviewer is invited to a specific project by email. After they accept the invitation and sign in, they reach the portal, where they only see content that has been shared with them for that project. See Accept a workspace or review invitation.
What a Client Reviewer can do
In the portal, for their assigned project only, a Client Reviewer can:
- See the content shared with them for review.
- Read and add client-visible comments.
- Approve content, or request changes.
That is the whole job. The portal is the primary path for Client Reviewer access.
What the portal shows
- Overview — how many items are waiting for the reviewer, how many they asked to change, how many they approved, their assigned projects, and the items waiting for a decision.
- Reviews — every shared item by status (Waiting For Review, Needs Changes, Approved, Resolved, All), with search. Opening an item shows the content as it will read, with Your review beside it: one note, then Approve (the note is optional) or Request Changes (the note is required). The conversation keeps the client-visible comments and the review history.
- Projects — the projects the reviewer was invited to, with how many items are waiting.
- Settings — the reviewer's name and email, how review emails work, and their project access. Sign-In & Security (from Settings or the account menu) lets the reviewer add a passkey, an authenticator app and recovery codes, link Google, or change their email, the same way Team Members do in Account Settings.
What a Client Reviewer cannot do
The portal is isolated by design. A Client Reviewer cannot:
- See other projects or other clients.
- Access your repository, GitHub Setup, or Deployment Setup.
- See billing, workspace settings, the team, or your content structure.
- See internal-only comments — they see only client-visible ones.
Legacy review links
Older review links remain available only as a hash-only fallback; the portal is the primary, account-based path. Your team can regenerate a legacy link for an item if needed, but new reviewers should use the portal.
