Create a workspace on an external repository

Transient workspaces can be created within your external repositories. This procedure describes how to create a new transient workspace on an external repository (such as SharePoint or CMIS) via BlackBerry Workspaces app for iOS. This action is only available for users with the Workspace owner role.

  1. From the navigation pane, select an external repository and then tap The create icon > Add Workspace.
  2. In the Enter name area, enter the name for the workspace.
  3. If desired, in the Workspace description area, enter a description for the workspace.
  4. In the Path box, enter the repository path.

    The path value determines the root level of the repository. It must begin with the same Allowed path as set by the Organization Administrator when the connector was configured.

    For example: Where the Organization Administrator set the allowed path to \\fileshare\, the following paths are valid:
    • \\fileshare\
    • \\fileshare\folderA\folderB
  5. For SharePoint or CMIS workspaces, in the Domain box, enter the repository domain.
  6. In the User name and Password boxes, enter your access credentials for the external repository.
  7. Tap Create.
