What is a Workspace?
To create a Workspace:
Select the Hub you wish to add a Workspace to in the Online Workspaces window
Select a name for your Workspace, selection the version compatibility and confirm by clicking "Create Folder"
Your new Workspace will appear as a child of the Hub
To edit the Workspace settings:
Select the Workspace in the "Online Workspaces" window
User settings
In the Workspace Settings, you can specify which user gets access to its content. The list of users and their level of access is diplayed here:
If someone has access to the parent Hub of the Workspace as a Hub Admin, they automatically have access to the Workspace as well.
You can easily manage the users through this window:
Add users to the Workspace
Enter the email address of the user you wish to add (they need to have an Orkestra Online account) and specify their role.
A user will be able to use the definitions through the Orkestra Revit Addin and view its properties but won't be able to download / open the script or edit its properties. An admin will be able to edit all settings of the Workspace and will also be able to download, open and edit definitions and their properties.
Add multiple users to the Workspace from .csv file
Select your .csv file. The format of the .csv must be as follow (UTF-8 Comma delimited) : first column is email, second column is access level.
Add Azure Active Directory Group

Package Settings
The Workspace settings also let you sync a set of packages to be used for definitions located inside that Workspace. This means that when a script is launched through the Orkestra Online Player Tab of the Orkestra Revit Addin, Orkestra switches the package environment automatically to match the parent Workspace's package settings. This lets you set the exact package versions that are required for your definitions, which makes deploying your content much easier and safer.
Once the toggle is switched on, the modifications are enabled for the Workspace:
