Source Home Page

Each source has a source home page located at rooturl/sourcename, where rooturl is the URL of the Soda installation and sourcename is the name of the source. For example, the home source of the installation at https://www.lacibus.net is at https://www.lacibus.net/home. On this page, you can:

Create a Main Workspace

On a source home page:

  1. Click Add icon
  2. Enter the name of the workspace
  3. Select the read access level
  4. Select the write access level
  5. Click Proceed icon
Rename a Main Workspace

On a source home page:

  1. Click Edit icon for the workspace that you want to rename
  2. Change the Name field
  3. Click Proceed icon


Delete a Main Workspace

Note that you cannot delete a main workspace that has sub-workspaces: you must delete them first.

On a source home page:

  1. Click Remove icon for the page, view, file, or sub-workspace that you want to delete.
  2. Click OK in the confirm dialog.
Change the Access Levels of a Main Workspace

On a source home page:

  1. Click Edit icon for the workspace that you want to change
  2. Select the read access level
  3. Select the write access level
  4. Click Proceed icon
Copy a Main Workspace

On a source home page:

  1. Click Move or copy icon for the workspace that you want to copy
  2. Select as Target Parent the source or workspace to which you want to copy it
  3. Select as Target Name the name that you want its copy to have
  4. Select the operation to perform: COPY preserving write levels or COPY at session write level
  5. Click Proceed icon
  6. A dialog will appear indicating whether the copy succeeded
  7. Click OK.

Note that you cannot move a main workspace.

With COPY preserving write levels, the copied items will have the same read and write access levels as the originals. The operation will fail if you would not then have write access to them. This can be inconvenient if, for example, you want to copy a workspace that you don't have write access to. You can use the COPY at session write level operation in this case. The write access levels of the copied items will then be your current access level. The read access levels will be unchanged.


Navigate to a Main Workspace

On a source home page:

  1. Click the name of a main workspace
  2. You will go to the main workspace whose name you clicked.
