HOSTED SPACES

Space Links

3min

Space Links is a feature that allows you to connect multiple published Spaces under unified navigation.

It’s a way for you to set up multi-product, multi-version documentation sites and link between User Guides, Developer Documentation, API docs.

How to set up Space Links

1

Go to the Space where you added your subdomain - let’s call it the main Space - it's the one with an empty pathname.

2

Click on the gear icon βš™οΈ for settings, then go to the Space Links tab.

3

Start building the Space Links:

  1. Add the space that you are currently on as a Space Link itself in the "Link to Space" box (we are doing this to be able to go back to your space);
  2. Add a label in the "Link Label" box (e.g., User Guide, Developer Documentation, API);
  3. Click the blue + Add button;
4

Repeat the add Space Link process until you wire up all the space links that you want.

5

Exit the Space Settings window and publish all linked Spaces.

Eligible space links

All your created spaces might be unavailable in the Space Link dropdown selector. That is because we are filtering only the spaces without connections with others, or if they are eligible for space linking.

While you can arrange and set up your Space Linking, behind the scenes, all your involved Spaces will replicate the same configuration. For example, let's take 2 spaces that are wired together,Β User GuideΒ andΒ Developer Documentation. While you are setting space linking onΒ User GuideΒ and wiring it together withΒ Developer Documentation, you will find all your desired configurations replicated onΒ Developer Documentation's settings.Β 

Every time you do a change in the space link configuration, the configuration will be replicated on all the spaces involved.

Once published you will be able to see the changes in public spaces. Here's how it looks for your readers:
