Workspace - External Connections


Workspace is a collaboration space for content in mid-development.


Admins can create a new Workspace for small teams to focus on hidden assets or content that shouldn’t yet be in the Main Library or shared via portals. When Workspace content is ready to be shared, it only takes one click to send them to the Main Library.
