Adopt a page as the team's position
For owners and admins, turn one member’s shared page into what the team stands by.
Most of the team’s thinking comes from weighing what many people say. Sometimes, though, a team wants to settle something: this is how we do it. Adopting a page makes it the team’s position.
Only a team’s owners and admins can adopt. Groups have no owners or admins, so adoption is for teams only.
Adopt a page
There are two ways:
- When sharing your own page, choose ⋯, then under Share what it says now, choose With the team, adopted as the team’s.
- For a page someone shared, switch to the team’s thinking, open Entries, click the shared page, and choose Adopt as the team’s.
The team’s thinking publishes it at once, exactly as it was shared. It reads “Adopted as the team’s position by … on …, from …'s page,” and connected AIs receive it as the team’s adopted position.
What changes
An adopted page holds still. Later passes never revise, merge, or retire it. Where members’ work departs from it, Cranes records those as exceptions in the team’s thinking, and owners and admins see on Today when they build up. That’s a signal to look again, not something Cranes decides for you.
If the person who shared it later shares an update, you can adopt the newer version.
Stop adopting
Open the page in the team’s thinking and choose Stop adopting. It goes back to being learned like any other page, as one member’s view.
