What is a Hub?
Every Orkestra Online account has an associated "Hub". A Hub is a storage space where you can load and organize your Dynamo definitions. It is represented by a " " in the "Online Workspaces" window. If you are the owner/ an administrator of the Hub, you can view and edit it's settings
A Hub cannot directly contain Dynamo definitions.
- 1.Select the Hub in the "Online Workspaces" window
- 2.Click on. This button will only be enabled if your are the owner/ an administrator of the Hub.

In the Hub settings, you can specify which user gets access to it's content. The list of users and their level of access is diplayed here:

By default, the User Settings at Hub level are inherited by the Workspaces located inside the Hub.
But those settings can be overriden at Workspace level.
The Hub settings also let you sync a set of packages to be used for definitions located inside that Hub. That means that when played through the Orkestra Online Player Tab of the Orkestra Revit Addin, Orkestra switches the package environment automatically accordingly with the those settings. This lets you set the exact package versions that are required for your definitions, which makes deploying your content much easier and safer.
