Ad Hoc Workspace Creation > Sharing Workspaces Through Zone

Sharing Workspaces Through Zone

Workspaces created through Milan's Create Workspace wizard can be shared with users who do not normally have access to WorkSite via another Prosperoware solution, Zone.

Workflow

While creating a workspace with the Create Workspace wizard, a Milan user enters the email address of an external user in the Sharing panel.
After the workspace has been created, the external user receives an email notification inviting her to activate the newly created workspace.
The external user follows the link provided in the email to the Zone server, where she creates a new Zone account.
The external user logs in to Zone and accesses the shared workspace from WorkSite → My Matters List in the left pane.

Note: Users granted access to a workspace through Zone are automatically added to the appropriate WorkSite library as an external user.
