Creating and managing workspaces

Workspace

A workspace is a place where you and other members of the workspace can upload documents, reports and capture ideas and other information in Notes. By default, all the notes that you create are added to your personal space on Ideolve named My Space. Notes created in My Space are accessible only to you.

To collaborate over notes, you create shared workspaces and invite team members to join a workspace. Then you share a note with team members by first moving the note to a shared workspace and then sharing the note with members of the workspace.

When you share a note with others, you allow them to read the content of the note and other comments. You can also allow team members to post their own comments.
