  • Workspace title - Enter the title for your new workspace.

  • Description - If you wish, provide a description. PortalTalk's search functionality also searches within the workspaces' description.​

  • Time interval for Access Review - This feature cannot be edited.

  • Metadata - If specific metadata apply to the workspace category, you can enter the relevant values for the new workspace in the following fields.

    The permissions that the organization members will have to your workspace will default to what is set within the category.
    If necessary, see the chapter on opening or closing your modern teamsite workspace for the organization​, for an explanation of how to deviate from this default permission.

  • Allow inviting external users? - Indicate whether it should be allowed to include external users in the new workspace's team.

  • Owner - Select an owner for the new workspace.

  • Click Next.
