Who can see 'Spec notes'?
'Spec notes' are visible in the context of the specification against which they have been saved. So to see a 'Spec note', you first need to have 'Reader' permission (or above) to the specification. If someone is excluded from seeing the specification, they will not see any notes against it (as they won't see the spec).
A 'Spec note' can also be set as an 'Internal note'. 'Internal notes' are only visible to members of the organization hosting the specification. Please see ‘Shared notes’ and ‘Internal notes’.
