Administration Tasks for Workspaces

System administrators and My webMethods administrators can enhance or restrict the a user’s workspace functionality by performing the following tasks:

Grant users access to the Navigate > Applications > Administration > System-Wide > Workspace Management page, which allows users to search for and take action on workspaces. For more information, see Allowing Users to Access the Workspace Management Page.

Prohibit users from performing basic workspace actions, such as viewing workspaces and creating workspaces. For more information, see Workspace Functional Privileges and Controlling the Workspace Functions a User Can Perform.

Grant users Expert Workspace Development privileges, giving them additional functionality that they can use when building workspaces. For more information, see Workspace Functional Privileges, Controlling the Workspace Functions a User Can Perform, and Expert User Features for Workspace Development.

Remove the Workspaces section of the My webMethods navigation for all users. For more information, see Hiding Standard Tabs and Sections of the My webMethods Navigation.

Customize the taxonomy displayed on the Tools tab of the My webMethods navigation. For more information, see Customizing the My webMethods Workspace Tools.

If a system administrator needs to take action to fix or delete a user’s workspace and cannot do so via the Navigate > Applications > Administration > System-Wide > Workspace Management page, they can attempt to correct the problem by accessing it in the user’s personal folder. My webMethods Server stores each workspace in the personal folder of the user who created the workspace. For example, if the user “jsmith” creates a workspace, you can use the system administrator user interface to navigate to the workspace in Folders > Users > jsmith's Root Folder > Workspaces.
