Key points to keep in mind
-
Moving or copying content between Workspaces is currently only available in the legacy Showell Admin platform, which is being phased out. This action cannot yet be performed in the Showell App for Web.
-
You need access to both Workspaces in order to move/copy content.
-
You need to have Admin rights.
-
Even if you have administrative privileges on both Workspaces, please note that you can only be an "active" Admin on one Workspace at a time. This means that, by default, you will have "restricted Admin rights" on the Workspace where you are copying or moving content.
-
Make sure that the folder you are copying content to has 'Edit' Privileges for a group you are part of, or make sure you are the owner of the folder. You can change the Ownership of a folder, or access rules from its properties Access settings.
