Spaces: live sites and apps
A space is a small live website or app that Sanaf builds and we host for you, such as a KPI dashboard, a sales pipeline,
a client portal or a quote calculator.
Spaces and pages
A page is something people read. A space runs code and keeps records, so people can use it: add a lead, tick off a task,
fill in a form. If you only need a report or a write-up with a shareable link, publish a page instead.
Ask for a space
Ask Sanaf in Slack, Teams or the console chat, for example "Build a tracker for our open jobs". The space appears on the
Spaces screen when Sanaf has built it.
You can also start from the console:
1. Open Spaces in the left rail and press Create space.
2. Pick a starting point: KPI dashboard, Sales pipeline, Client onboarding, Operations tracker, Quote calculator or
Content calendar. Or press Start from scratch and describe what you want.
3. You land in the chat with a prompt ready. Edit it if you like, then send it.
Sanaf builds the space as a draft, then publishes it so it goes live at its own address. Publishing costs credits, so
Sanaf may ask for your approval first.
Open and share a space
The Spaces screen lists every space with its name, whether it is Live or a Draft, and whether it is Public or Private.
Open a space's row menu for Open, Details, Copy link, Rename, Make public or Make private, and Put away.
- Public: anyone with the address can open it, no sign-in needed.
- Private: only a signed-in member can open it, from the console. The link you get there works for 1 hour.
The space's own screen
Press Details to see:
- Opens, Credits so far and the live version.
- A Preview of the live space.
- Ask Sanaf to change it: press Open chat and describe the change. Sanaf edits the space and publishes the new
version.
- Who may open it, where an owner or a manager can switch between public and private or put it away.
- Files and Records: what the space is made of and the records it keeps.
- Last 14 days: files served, data reads and data writes per day.
What a space costs
A space costs credits while it is live. Each published space is charged a daily hosting fee, even on a day nobody opens
it, plus the files it serves and the records it reads and writes. A draft that was never published costs nothing to
host.
If your workspace runs out of credits, every space pauses until you top up. A space also has a daily limit on how many
requests it serves.
To stop paying for a space, open its row menu and choose Put away. It goes offline and hosting stops after that day.
