Security Feature Request: Password Protected Docs and data table individual record permissions

[camich]

Hello Zoom team and community,

I’d like to request two enhancements for Zoom Docs that would significantly improve document security, data governance, and collaborative workflows:

1. Password Protection for Zoom Docs

It would be extremely helpful to have the option to password-protect individual documents. This feature would allow creators to restrict access even if a link is shared more widely than intended, adding an extra layer of security for sensitive or confidential information.

Key benefits:

• Prevents unauthorized access via leaked or forwarded links

• Adds an additional access-control layer beyond workspace permissions

• Helps organizations comply with internal security policies and external regulations

 

2. Record-Level Permissions for Data Tables

For teams that use data tables within Zoom Docs, the ability to set role-based permissions at the record (row) level would be transformative. This means different users or user groups could have restricted visibility or edit rights on specific rows.

This would enable:

• Confidential or sensitive rows to be visible only to authorized roles

• Controlled editing rights to reduce errors or unauthorized changes

• More flexible workflows for HR, finance, operations, research, and client-based work

• Improved data governance without needing separate documents or tables

These enhancements would make Zoom Docs a stronger fit for organizations that handle sensitive information while still leveraging the collaborative structure of Zoom’s ecosystem. Password protection addresses document-level security, while record-level permissions enable fine-grained control inside shared documents, providing a more enterprise-ready experience.

Thank you for considering these suggestions. I’d love to see Zoom Docs evolve with stronger permission controls, and I’m happy to provide additional context or use cases if helpful.
