Spaces

Spaces are dedicated thematic areas in Thrive facilitating member connectivity, collaboration, and the sharing of content relevant to a common topic, team, or professional interest. Spaces enable administrators to establish themed, multi-page environments where teams can access relevant resources and engage with one another.

Only Super Admins can initially create Spaces, but they can designate any user to be an administrator or editor of a Space. For example, a Super Admin can nominate a subject-matter expert to be an administrator of a relevant Space, enabling them to add and remove resources.

This opens the Spaces management screen containing the following tabs:
