Hello, 

we are considering a switch to Trello. In order for that we need to know if it is possible to setup a board within the workspace that the workspace admin will not have access to (because of priviledged information). 

So basically there will be a board admin and a select few users that will have access to it. 

Is this possible or will the workspace admin always have access to all boards?

Hi @Sam Jiwa 

Private boards are only visible to the people who are members of them, a workspace admin won't be able to access it
