Cloudera Data Visualization uses workspaces to manage security and workflow aspects of
data visualization within enterprise organizations. To manage and share your visuals in in the
most effective way, it is crucial to understand the different workspace types available in the
system.
When you work with Cloudera Data Visualization, all of your visuals are saved
within a workspace. There are three main types of workspaces: private, public, and custom.
Private workspace
Visuals created are automatically saved here and are exclusively accessible to you
and administrators.
Within this workspace, you can create dashboards and add visuals and filters.
Dashboards and visuals exist in only one workspace at a time. To share a visual
artifact, move it from your private workspace to a custom or public workspace.
Custom workspace
Users with appropriate privileges can create custom workspaces for collaborative
efforts.
You can share visuals or dashboards with specific users or user groups by moving
them to a custom workspace, configuring access rights as needed.
Public workspace
Visuals within this workspace are visible to any user with minimal viewing
permissions for the relevant dataset.
