How do I add a private opportunity?

This article shows group managers how to make an opportunity private, and how to select who can see a private opportunity.

Setting an opportunity as private is a premium feature available on Be Collective Plus and Pro plans (included on Full Platform). To learn more about Be Collective's subscription plans, please see Be Collective's product plans & pricing

Private opportunities are not shown in public search results — they can only be seen by the members of your group that you as a group administrator/owner choose to share them with.

If the opportunity is shared by another organisation's group as an endorsement, the members of that group will also be able to see the opportunity.

For more information on endorsements, see Endorsements explained
