Strety Spaces are the backbone of our permission structure that determines where items can be seen & shared. There are (3) types of Spaces:
Company Space: Items affecting the entire org, like Company Rocks
Team Space: The actual Teams in your Strety account
Person Space: The collection of items someone is assigned across all Teams they are a member of + their personal/private items.
Team Spaces
A Team Space is where all the items & agendas associated with a team come together. Any member of a Team can see & view all data assigned or shared to the space.
Permissions/Access: Private vs Secret Spaces
There are two permission types of Spaces, Private and Secret. This setting can selected when creating a new team or from the team's edit settings.
Private Spaces are accessible to members of the team + all account admins.
Secret Spaces are locked down so that only members of that Space can view it - making it perfect for Same Page teams you don't want global access to
Note: A Person Space is always a Secret Space
Assigning Primary Space
When adding or editing items, there must always be a Primary Space assigned to the item.
For any To Do, Rock, or Metric assigned on a Private Team Space, we automatically share the item with the assignee's Personal Space - this enables the assignee to see all of those items when from their Personal Space page.
You can remove the sharing with the Personal Space by clicking the small x
For items assigned to a Secret Team Space, Strety does not automatically share with the assignee's Person Space
If you'd like to share an item with additional Team or Person spaces so the item can be viewed in other Team or Personal To Do lists, click into the existing item and add the Spaces from the Spaces shared with dropdown. This option is great for items that impact multiple teams, so everyone can stay informed!
Person Spaces
A Person Space is where all the items assigned to an individual across all Teams come together in a single view. This also includes all personal/private items as well as their 1x1 agenda and Review(s).
Your Person Space is your Personal Overview page found from the People dropdown on the top nav bar. It is visible to yourself, your direct manager, and any managers up the chain. You can always know who has access to your Person Space by the avatars in the top right
When assigned a To Do, Rock, or Metric from a Team page or from within a Team Meeting (L10 or Custom), we will also share that item with your Person Space by default. This ensure everything you are assigned is viewable from your Personal Overview Page
Adding Personal Items
For items that are meant to be Personal you can set the Primary Team as your Personal Space and it will only be viewable by yourself and your manager(s).
All item types (To Dos, Issues, Metrics, Rocks, and Headlines) can be created as Personal
If you'd like to share a Personal item with additional Team or Person space, click into the existing item and add the spaces you'd like to share with from the Spaces shared with options
Company Spaces
Currently, only Rocks can be shared at the Company Space level. For more on Company Rocks, check out this article
We'll soon be adding Company Messages and CompanyPlaybooks
