Important: If you're a Google Workspace for Education user, participants are given view-only access by default. You'll need to grant them edit access to the Jamboard.

• Participants not on the calendar invite but in the same organization as the Jamboard host are automatically given edit access if the Jamboard is shared after they’ve joined the meeting.

Important: You’ll need to give access to any participants who join the meeting after the Jamboard is shared.

• Participants from a different organization than the Jamboard host need to be given access. Open the Jam file > click Share  type in the email addresses  click Done.
