Overview

Shared queues are secured queues. They enable multiple users to access selected documents (in accordance with the users' rights). All jobs sent to the shared queue are automatically accessible to all users with access rights to that queue.

There are also special type of shared queues: VIP shared queue, which have assigned one SafeQ user as an owner. Then the owner can add or remove users or roles in shared queue via web link or via SafeQ Client. For more info please see: Configuring and using Shared Queues
