Space admins and administration

As a space admin you can

:

apply a workflow to all content in the space (space mode application) using the Document Control dashboard.

The Document Control dashboard allows a space administrator to

  • select the space workflow using the Change Workflow button

  • disable or enable a space workflow for the space using the check and slider button next to the workflow name

  • Edit the current space workflow template using workflow builder

Once the workflow is enabled, a space administrator can

  • Initialise States for a space workflow with when being initially applied or at any required point in the documentation development

  • Edit the current space workflow template using workflow builder
  • The space admin can also choose to Clear Workflows History for all workflows in the space, This will clear the workflow history for all pages and blog posts. However, the user will be prompted for a global Confluence admin username and password to complete this action.

    Only one workflow can be enabled in the space Document Control dashboard. This workflow is applied to all the content in the space.

    The current workflow in the space can be edited using workflow builder to filter its application by the content label.
