Managing Workspace UsersLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

As a manager or owner of a workspace, you can share your restricted and private workspaces with people in your organization by adding members to the workspace. You can also add managers to the workspace to assist in the creation, configuration, and management of content in a shared workspace.

You do not need to add members to a public workspace. All portal users with access to enterprise workspaces can open public workspaces, so there is no need to add them explicitly. You can, however, add managers to a public workspace.

You can add members either by adding individual users, or by adding groups of users. The ability to add groups of users is configured by an administrator.

The role that you assign to users determines which activities they can perform in the workspace. For more information about workspace roles, see Roles and Personas.

Prerequisites

You are the owner or manager of the workspace.

Procedure
  1. In the workspace, choose Workspace settings.

  2. Choose the User Management tab.

  3. Depending on the permission policy chosen when creating the workspace, you see the following:

    • Pending Requests: displays the list of portal users who have requested to join the workspace.

      Relevant only for restricted workspaces.

    • Managers: displays the list of managers in the workspace.

      Relevant for all workspace types.

    • Members: displays the list of members in the workspace.

      Relevant for restricted and private workspaces.

Note

You can copy the direct URL for a workspace to your clipboard, and then use this URL to easily access the workspace, for example, you can add the URL to browser favorites or e-mail it to a user. They can then use this URL to access the workspace directly (assuming that they have access permissions for the workspace). You do this by choosing the Copy workspace URL to clipboard icon in the tabstrip of the workspace.
