Unlock Team Collaboration
Sharing a Space transforms it from a personal tool into a powerful team asset. Why share?- Unified Uploaded Files: Ensure everyone on your team gets answers from the same source of truth (your Uploaded Files).
- Consistent Guidance: Give your entire team access to an AI assistant that follows the same instructions and tone.
- Faster Onboarding: New team members can instantly access the collective knowledge and tools they need.
Understanding Space Roles
Before sharing a Space, it’s important to understand the different roles available:- Admin
- Member
- Full control over Space settings
- Can add/remove members
- Can modify Space Details and Instructions
- Can manage Uploaded Files
- Can grant/revoke admin access
When you create a Space, you automatically become its admin. Choose carefully when granting admin privileges to others, as admins have full control over the Space.
