Pomlet Whiteboard works on its own or as an activity inside a session. Access rules for a standalone link never prevent invited session participants from entering while that activity is live.

Sharing and roles
Choose access by link, signed-in account, or named email invitation.
Viewer can watch. Editor can change unlocked content. Admin can also select and change locked content.
The owner manages sharing, invitations, roles, and board settings. Removing someone or tightening access takes effect for active connections too.
Inside a session
Players enter with their session identity. A restricted organization folder also requires a signed-in account with access to the session and whiteboard folders.
In a live session, the canvas opens when the host reaches that activity and closes when the host moves on. In a self-paced session, each participant opens it on reaching that activity, until the deadline.
The same whiteboard can be used by separate sessions: every session has its own temporary admission.
Editing and locked objects
Use sticky notes, text, shapes, arrows, freehand drawing, voting, alignment, and layers.
Lock stable instructions or background elements so editors cannot select, move, edit, or delete them.
Reports show current shape and sticky-note totals, plus cumulative additions by identified participant.
Import, export, embed, and deletion
Export preserves content and visual settings, but excludes members, invitations, and contribution history.
Import creates a new independent whiteboard. The embed reflects the board background and is read-only.
Deleting a whiteboard also clears it from every session that referenced it. Old links then show that the board is unavailable.
