Sharing your analysis
You can share an analysis to the public, with a select group of people, or to a Spotfire Cloud team.
To share an analysis from the library, the analyses that you want to share must be contained in a folder with the type: Public, Shared, or Work Group. To configure the sharing settings for a folder, use the Shared folders tab described below.
For more information about saving items in the library, see Saving an analysis.
On the Shared folders tab, the Type column indicates the type of sharing configured for that folder. The possible values are:
Icon | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
![]() |
Work Group |
The Work Group type folder is a shared workspace and it only available to users who are members of a Spotfire Cloud team. You cannot create a Work Group type folder because this folder is automatically created by the Spotfire Cloud system when a Spotfire Cloud team is created. The access to and ownership of analyses files and subfolders contained in the Work Group type folder is shared to each member of your Spotfire Cloud team. This means that each Analyst or Business Author on your Spotfire Cloud team can modify any item in the Work Group folder. You can add items to the Work Group folder by either creating items directly in the folder or by moving items from a different folder to this folder. For more information about Spotfire Cloud teams, see Managing your team. |
