If you\u2019re new to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, you\u2019ve probably run into questions about Collaborative Spaces such as how they work, how visible they are, and who gets access. You\u2019re not alone! At first glance, visibility settings and permissions can feel a little tricky, but once you understand the basics, managing Collaborative Spaces becomes much simpler. Let\u2019s break it down together.<\/p>\n

What Exactly Is a Collaborative Space?<\/h2>\n

Think of a Collaborative Space as a secure vault for your data. It\u2019s not just where files live. It\u2019s also how you control who sees what, and who can do what, with your designs.<\/p>\n

Every new platform starts with one by default: the Common Space. This is often used for templates or standard component libraries. Administrators can open it up or lock it down depending on the needs of the team.<\/p>\n

Pro tip:<\/strong> You\u2019ll likely create additional spaces as your projects grow, but resist the urge to treat them like folders. Collaborative Spaces are not meant for organizing data. They\u2019re meant for controlling access and visibility.<\/p>\n

For many companies, just two spaces (Common Space and Design Space) are enough. If you\u2019re working across multiple divisions or sharing with external partners, you might need more.<\/p>\n

Visibility: Who Sees What?<\/h2>\n

When creating a Collaborative Space, one of the first choices you\u2019ll make is its visibility setting. Don\u2019t worry, you can always adjust it later.<\/p>\n
