# allowsAccessRequests

Indicates whether uninvited users can request access to this share.

```
var allowsAccessRequests: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

By default, this property is `NO`. When this property is `YES`, uninvited users can request
access to the share if they discover the share URL. When this property is `NO`, the server prevents uninvited users
from requesting access and does not indicate whether the share exists.

Only the share owner or an administrator can modify this property. If another participant attempts to modify
this property, CloudKit throws an exception.
