Summary

There are a variety of settings that can be used to manage your workspace: General settings Team settings Metadata manager Deeplinks Copy workspace Features In this article we'll provide an overview of those settings, where you can find them in Backstage, and how they work. The workspace settings are accessible via the workspace main menu, by clicking on Settings.

General settings

The first option in the menu is the General settings, and includes four tabs:

• General settings.
• Network settings.
• Web app settings.
• App preferences.

Below we'll take a closer look at each of these tabs.

General

The General tab allows you to access and edit all the workspace details or data. 

This includes all the information and settings used when the workspace is created:

From here, you can:

• Edit any of the workspace details or information, such as the name, container app, title, subtitle, etc. For more information on each of these settings please refer to the Workspace information section in the Creating a workspace article.
• Change or add the language for the workspace.
• Enable or disable the use of activation codes for the workspace.
• Add or create legal documents associated to the workspace.
• Create a workspace template based off the current workspace, in order to re-use it when creating future workspaces.

Network

The Network tab allows you to manage the network configuration for the workspace, as well as add networks. For more information on this, please contact SpotMe support.

Web app settings

The Web app settings tab allows you to change certain settings that apply when users access the workspace via the web app:

Enable web app specific settings - selecting this displays the additional options below:

• One time links - Selecting this makes the link received by web app users to log into web app work only once.
• Session TTL seconds - by default, after logging in, the log in remains valid in for a duration of two weeks. This can be modified (for example shortened) by entering a different value here (in seconds).
• Whitelisted IPs - IP addresses from which users can connect. If no IP addresses are added here the users  can log-in from any IP address.

App preferences

Settings > Home launcher:

Here you can configure what you would like to see on the Home page. By default, the Home feed is selected.

Content editors > Activation settings:

You can use the activation settings to choose what will happen when the users activate/access the app for the first time:

• Open a document - Select an item in the app that is opened automatically when the app user first accesses the app. This could be a feed, a form, a page, etc.
• Open in fullscreen - Checking this box will make the item selected in "open a document" open in full screen on the user's device.
• Hide the toolbar - Checking this box will make the item selected in "open a document" display without the toolbar.
  
• Start by editing the user profile - Checking this box will make the app prompt the user to update their profile, when they access the app for the first time.

Team settings

The Team settings allow you to manage the team members that have access to your workspace, and their permissions. More information on this is available in the Adding and removing team members article.

Metadata settings

The Metadata settings gives you access to the metadata manager. For more information on this please refer to the Metadata manager article.

Deeplinks settings

The Deeplinks settings can be used to create and configure access to pre-authenticated pages in Backstage:

These are used to provide access to a specific page to a person who will not need to sign in to Backstage in order to access it. For a specific deeplink, you can select:

• The module that can be accessed via the deeplink.
• The specific element type within the module that can be accessed.
• The way the linked page will open, as well as whether and how the user can navigate from that page.
• The access permissions.

Copy workspace settings
