Programa’s enhanced Client Dashboard update introduces powerful new controls for managing client access to project files. This update allows designers and architects to view, edit, and manage who has access to specific files like Schedules, Pinboards, and Canva Shares—all from one centralized dashboard. Key features include quick access management, customizable file filters, and client overview tools, making it easy to track and adjust access with one click.

In addition, new protections on file deletions prevent accidental loss of important data, while public link sharing enables faster external sharing without extra steps. With these updates, Programa’s Client Dashboard streamlines workflows, improves file security, and supports better client communication. Whether you need to adjust permissions, organize file visibility, or keep your client list up to date, Programa’s Client Dashboard is built to optimize every step of your design project management.
