Workspace administration overview

00:04

This is the workflow overview for the module.

00:07

The first task is an overview of workspace administration before we get into creating and editing workspaces and editing workflows.

00:18

Many workspaces are provided with your Fusion 360 Manage tenant.

00:23

To view the default workspaces provided out-of-the-box, select Administration, Workspace Manager,

00:30

here we have the list of default workspaces.

00:33

Note the types of work spaces such as basic workspace or basic workspace with workflow for example,

00:40

you will be learning how to create new workspaces as well as how to clone workspaces in this module.

00:47

Once a workspace is created, you can configure it using the tools provided.

00:52

Expand the workspace name to view the various configuration tools such as Workspace Settings to edit the name,

00:59

description and other details of the workspace,

01:02

Item Details Tab to configure the fields and sections as well as other tabs for configuring their columns and layouts and more.

01:10

Later in the module, you will be learning how to configure workspaces and their layouts using the tools shown.

01:20

You can also perform some advanced workspace configuration, including adding colors with styles using computed fields.

01:28

This example adds color depending on the values of the business type field, whether it be new business or existing business.

01:35

Note that this is just an example for your information to show what you can do with your workspaces after they initially set up.

01:43

The specifics of this example aren't covered in this module.

01:49

In this demonstration, we will be using Workspace Manager to view the default out-of-the-box workspaces.

01:57

To do this, select Administration, Workspace Manager,

02:02

and shown here, is the list of workspaces.

02:05

Now let's expand the Design Reviews workspace to view all the configuration options,

02:10

select Workspace Settings to view the workspace name and other settings

02:15

and then select Item Details Tab and note the various tabs, sections and fields that can be changed.

02:24

Let's see how the configuration options match up to an actual items details page.

02:29

Shown here is an item in the design reviews workspace with its sections, fields and its tabs.

02:40

Now let's go back and see what else can be configured.

02:45

The Descriptor is another important configuration. In this case

02:48

you see that the descriptor consists of the number, sequence and title.

02:56

Note the option for Workflow Editor as well, which will get more into later in the module,

03:03

and that other workspaces have similar configuration options depending on their type.
