CORE 1.23.1 [SciNote Premium]
With this release, SciNote is upgrading the permission system related to Projects to ensure even better and more secure access to your data in SciNote.

Here are some highlights that the upgraded SciNote permission system brings:
- In addition to projects, you can now manage access for users also on experiments and tasks
- Improved Manage project members: cleaner look, easier adding new project members with search by name option, easier granting and updating roles
- Simpler moving of Experiments to other projects
- Improved project visibility setting (when creating a new project or editing existing one): we replaced the “Project members only / All team members” setting with the “Make this project visible to all team members” and added the option to grant any role to all team members, not just Viewer as before
