How do I enable Group Isolation?

Last updated: October 20, 2026

This article explains what Group Isolation does and how admins enable it for a group in the PULT dashboard.

💡 What is Group Isolation? Booking data can be sensitive. With Group Isolation, members of a group only see the bookings of their fellow group members, and their own bookings are hidden from other groups.

Enable Group Isolation

1. Groups

In the PULT dashboard, go to Settings → Employees → Groups.

2. Open the group

Click the group (or the arrow on the right) to expand its settings.

3. Group Isolation

Switch on the toggle next to Group Isolation. That's it – the setting applies to all members of this group.

What changes on the floor plan?

Bookings from members of other groups are shown as ghost emojis on the floor plan, and the isolated group shows up as ghost emojis to other groups:

Frequently asked questions

Why do I see ghost emojis on the floor plan?

A ghost is shown when a booking is hidden from you – for example because of Group Isolation, or because the user has enabled incognito mode (see Enable User Incognito Mode).

Can I isolate only some members of a group?

No. Group Isolation always applies to the whole group. If only some people should be isolated, put them into a separate group.

Isolation doesn't seem to work for a user. What should I check?

Check which group the user belongs to in Settings → Employees → Users (column Team) and whether Group Isolation is switched on for exactly that group.

Are admins affected by Group Isolation?

Since 29 September, admins can be excluded from Group Isolation: if Extended admin visibility is enabled under Settings → General → Privacy, admins also see coworkers from isolated groups on the web app's floor plan and in its coworker views, including their bookings and absences. Nothing changes for non-admins (including team leads), and users in incognito mode stay hidden.
