Document Security Levels Explained Follow
While the MLS does not regulate documents, we do provide a platform for agents to utilize for their convenience. Please consider the document level security requirements when uploading documents to the Listing Manager.
Public - There are no restrictions on who can view the document. It can appear on public websites, in public or private email messages, and some MLS Data shares.
- For example, documents set to Public view will be available to 3rd party sites.
Private - The document will be visible only to members of your MLS. The document cannot be viewed on public websites, in public email messages, or through MLS data sharing.
- For example, a MOG set to Private will only be visible to subscribers and staff of DMLS.
Has Edit Permission - The document can be viewed only by members who have edit permissions for the listing, including the listing member, the broker, and the MLS administrator. The document cannot be viewed on public websites or by other members of the MLS.
- For example: There are four (4) documents that DMLS requires. All of these documents will have this default setting assigned upon upload since these documents are only for staff and listing agent/BIC use.
