Assigning project areas to configuration spaces

After you create a project area, you must assign it to a configuration space, which is also called a space.

Before you begin

You should be familiar with project areas, configuration spaces, snapshots, workspaces, and change sets, which are described in Management of shared design resources.

A Design Management project area must exist that is not associated with a space. For more information about creating a project area, see the related link at the end of this topic.

About this task

After you associate a project area with a space, you cannot associate that project area with a different space. You must have JazzAdmins privileges to complete this task.

Procedure

  1. Open the dashboard for the project: Click the Home icon in the upper left of the page and, in the Design Management section, click the project area name.
  2. Open the properties page for the project area: On the toolbar in the upper-right corner of the page, click the Administration icon; then click Manage Project Properties.
  3. In the left sidebar, click Design Domain.
  4. Under the Configure Space header, create a configuration space or select an existing one; then click Save.

    For example, in a collaborative development environment, you might have different project teams working on different project components. You might specify that these teams share the same configuration space so that the teams share the same configurations.

Results

When you create a configuration space, a corresponding default workspace is created. A dropdown list is displayed in the header near the upper right of the page, which lists the contexts for the project area. You must associate a project area with one or more domains.
