Arranging space hierarchy

You can view the list of spaces and organize the space hierarchy in the Admin Console.

Fastpath:
  • Admin Console > Permissions > Spaces
  • Advanced Admin Console > Spaces > Management > Summary

You can view the list of all spaces and subspaces of your community in the Admin Console. You can add new spaces, change the order of spaces under one parent space, move spaces to other parent spaces, edit general space settings, and delete spaces.

Note: You can't move or delete the root space.

To arrange spaces in the hierarchy:

  1. Go to the configuration page:
    • Admin Console > Permissions > Spaces
    • Advanced Admin Console > Spaces > Management > Summary
  2. To create a new space, select the parent space for the new space and then:
    • Click the gear icon > Add a Subspace.
    • Click New in the Advanced Admin Console
    For more information, see Creating new spaces from the Admin Console.
  3. To edit space properties, select the space and then:
    • Click the gear icon > Edit general information.
    • Click Edit in the Advanced Admin Console
    For more information, see Setting up general space settings and Renaming the root space.
  4. To change the order of subspaces of a space, drag-and-drop the subspaces.
  5. To move a space to another parent space, select the space and then:
    • Click the gear icon > Move Space.
    • Click Move in the Advanced Admin Console
    After that, select a new parent space in the dialog box, and click Move Space.
  6. To delete a space and all content inside it, select the space and then:
    • Click the gear icon > Delete Space.
    • Click Delete in the Advanced Admin Console
    Before the space is deleted, you'll get a warning with notes about what deletion means, along with a summary of the amount of content inside the space you're deleting. If you delete a space that includes subspaces, all subspaces are deleted as well. Also note that deleting a space make take some time.
