# Guest users
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This page documents how guest users work in Zulip. This documentation
|
||
|
|
attempts to cover the current state first, and then the
|
||
|
|
to-be-implemented restrictions.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Guest users are like normal users in Zulip, except that they cannot do
|
||
|
|
the following:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Join public streams without being added by another user.
|
||
|
|
* Access message history on public streams.
|
||
|
|
* Create streams (public or private)
|
||
|
|
* Create or own bots users
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For many of these limitations, we haven't yet hidden the relevant
|
||
|
|
section(s) of the UI, and the prototype guest user experience will
|
||
|
|
feel buggy until we hide those features.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Limitations to be implemented:
|
||
|
|
* Manage streams (e.g. Add other users to a stream they are subscribed
|
||
|
|
to)
|
||
|
|
* See streams they are not subscribed to.
|
||
|
|
* Interact with user groups
|
||
|
|
* Send private messages to users not in a stream with them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
(And more, this is an initial high-level TODO list).
