# Configure Guardrail Access Permissions for Workspaces

## Overview

Guardrail Management in the AI Gateway enables organisation administrators to control who can view and manage guardrails within workspaces. This helps teams enforce governance while ensuring members only get the level of guardrail access they need.

## Accessing Guardrail Management

1. Navigate to **Admin Settings** in Strata Cloud Manager
2. Select the **Security** tab from the left sidebar
3. Locate the **Guardrail Management** section

## Permission Settings

The Guardrail Management section provides three permission options:

| Permission                    | Description                                                                              |
| ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Managers View Guardrails**  | Allow workspace managers to view guardrails within their workspace                       |
| **Managers Write Guardrails** | Allow workspace managers to create, update, and delete guardrails within their workspace |
| **Members View Guardrails**   | Allow workspace members to view guardrails within their workspace                        |

**Default settings:**

* Managers can view and write guardrails
* Members can view guardrails
* Members do not get a Manage Guardrails toggle (shown as N/A in the UI)

## Workspace-Level Overrides

Guardrail access permissions support **workspace-level overrides**, allowing you to configure different guardrail access settings per workspace.

When workspace-level overrides are enabled for guardrails:

* Each workspace can have its own `membersViewGuardrails`, `managersViewGuardrails`, and `managersWriteGuardrails` settings
* Workspace settings take precedence over organisation-level settings and inherit organisation settings by default

To configure workspace-level overrides:

1. Enable the **Allow workspace-level configuration** toggle in the Guardrail Management section under organisation Security settings
2. Navigate to the specific workspace settings to configure per-workspace guardrail access
