To set up a new global space, you require 'Create Space' permission which is assigned by a site administrator from the Administration Console. See Security or contact a site administrator for more information.

To create a new global space,

  1. Click on the link 'Create a Space' located below the list of spaces on the Dashboard.

  2. Enter a few details about your space.

    • Space Name: Enter a name for the space.
    • Space Key : Enter a simple key to refer to your space (A-Z, a-z, 0-9). This key is a shorthand name for the space that is used when linking content between spaces, for web urls, and reports.
      For example, the 'Development Space' might have a space key of 'DEV'.
    • Space Description: Enter a description to give other users an idea of the space's contents (optional). A space description may contain Confluence markup.

  3. Click 'OK'.



Now, you can start adding pages to your space.
