Create and share whiteboards

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.
