Spaces add a layer of organization within groups, providing simple, yet powerful organization for your documents.
For instance, if you use groups to distinguish between different product areas (e.g. iOS, web), spaces allow you to further organize the documents into components or flows (e.g. onboarding, payments). Or if you‘re an agency that uses groups to categorize documents by client, you can use spaces to compartmentalize each client’s documents into specific contracts or projects (e.g. Q4 Brand Refresh). Spaces were designed to give teams more flexibility to organize their work.

Accessing spaces
The groups and spaces hierarchy is easily accessible within each individual group page, the spaces page, and the navigation sidebar.
Individual group
When you open a specific group where at least one space has been created, you will see the space tiles for all spaces that have been created under that group.
If you open a group without spaces, you will see a list of all documents within that group.

Spaces page
If you open the Spaces page in the left sidebar, you will see all available groups within your team, along with any spaces within them. Use the search bar at the top of the page to search for spaces.

Sidebar
All groups you’re a member of are listed in the left sidebar. Spaces are nested below their respective group.
When you open a space, all documents within that space are listed in the sidebar. From the sidebar, you can access all the space documents, create new documents, and customize your space:
-
- From the space overview and/or from your current document, open and collaborate on any of the space documents by selecting the documents in the sidebar.
