# Access rights

You can securely share your resources with others by using a granular permissions system. Such resources include Actors, tasks, key-value stores, datasets, and request queues.

For example, you can let your colleague run an [Actor](https://pr-2519.preview.docs.apify.com/platform/actors.md) or view a [dataset](https://pr-2519.preview.docs.apify.com/platform/storage/dataset.md) but not modify it. You can also grant permission to update an Actor and build a new version. [Storages](https://pr-2519.preview.docs.apify.com/platform/storage.md) are sharable in the same way as a **read** permission or a combination of both **read** and **write** permissions.

## Grant access to resources

To share an Actor or a task:

1. In Apify Console, go to the Actor or task page.
2. From the menu, select **Share**.
3. Under **Invite**, add the user ID, email, or username of a person you want to share the resource with and select **Add user**.
4. From the dropdown, select the permissions to grant.
