## Overall Sharing Model

- Your Salesforce admin determines the default access levels across your Salesforce org, including the default opportunity access levels for territories.

## Sharing Your Own Opportunities

- Although you can increase access to your opportunities, you can’t restrict access further than the default access levels determined by your Salesforce admin.
- To share an opportunity with another user, that user must have read access to opportunities.

## Sharing Info for Opportunities

- The sharing detail page lists the users, groups, roles, and territories that have sharing access to an opportunity.
