Introduction

A Workspace is a place where you can bring together a group of Users to collaborate around a common topic. Workspaces are made up of Posts and Comments. You can set up a workspace about any relevant theme that you want to share with others in your organisation.

Creating a Workspace

You can create a workspace using the link above the Workspaces List, which you can get to from the Workspaces option from the Collaboration menu item in the Navigation Bar. You can add other co-workers as members when you set up a workspace. After set up, other Co-workers can join the workspace if it is a public workspace, or if you created the workspace, you can add them directly yourself.

Types of Workspaces

A Public workspace is visible to everyone. It appears in the list of Public Workspaces, and you can see what people have posted in it, and who are members. Anyone can join a Public workspace.

A Private workspaces is only visible to members. It only appears in a list of workspaces if you are a member. You cannot Join a Private workspace yourself - only the owner can add you as a member.

Any member of any workspace (Public or Private) can leave that workspace, except the owner, who can only leave by deleting the workspace.
