To create a Space click or tap “Create Space” on the home screen, give the Space a name and click or tap “Create Space”. That’s it! You can now upload data into your newly created Space. The Space will also be available for use via the local file system.

Newly created Spaces will be automatically be stored on current default storage depot (server). To select which depot a Space should be stored on, please read the following section “Choosing Where a Space Shall Be Hosted”.

To view your Space, navigate to the “Active Spaces” tab via the home screen.

Creating a Space automatically invites all of your personal, active TeamDrive installations.

Choosing Where a Space Shall Be Hosted

When creating a Space you also have the ability to select where a Space shall be hosted. The section “Server” (below the Space ‘name’ input field) allows you to select which server the Space shall be hosted on.

To import or add a WebDAV server or TeamDrive Personal Server during the “Create Space” process click or tap the ‘+’ at the top right-hand corner of the screen. After the server has been added, select the server from the “Server” list and create your Space.

Converting an Existing Folder into a Space (Desktop only)

Postby Kenneth » 02 Feb 2016, 17:24

To convert an existing folder into a Space click “Create Space” on the home screen, click on the magnifying glass to browse for the existing folder and click “Select Folder”. That’s it! Your existing folder is now a Space. You can also convert an existing folder into a Space using the context menu. Simply right-click on any non-TeamDrive folder (that is not inside of an existing Space nor in the TeamDrive database) and select “Convert to Space” from the context menu. An existing folder can also be converted into a Space by dragging the folder directly into the “Active Spaces” section of TeamDrive.

On Windows machines it is possible create or store a Space on a network drive by entering a UNC path, e.g. ‘\\dss\...\server\share\...’, when browsing for a folder you would like to convert into a Space .
