| 10 | +Spaces enable you to organize your dashboards and other saved |
| 11 | +objects into meaningful categories. Once inside a space, you see only |
| 12 | +the dashboards and saved objects that belong to that space. |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +When you create and enter a new project, you're using the default space of that project. |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +You can identify the space you're in or switch to a different space from the header. |

| 20 | +You can view and manage the spaces of a project from the **Spaces** page in **Management**. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +## Required permissions |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +You must have an admin role on the project to manage its **Spaces**. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | +## Create or edit a space |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | +You can have up to 100 spaces in a project. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +1. Click **Create space** or select the space you want to edit. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +2. Provide: |
| 33 | + - A meaningful name and description for the space. |
| 34 | + - A URL identifier. The URL identifier is a short text string that becomes part of the ((kib)) URL. ((kib)) suggests a URL identifier based on the name of your space, but you can customize the identifier to your liking. You cannot change the space identifier later. |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +3. Customize the avatar of the space to your liking. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +4. Save the space. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +((kib)) also has an [API](https://www.elastic.co/docs/api/doc/serverless/group/endpoint-spaces) |
| 41 | +if you prefer to create spaces programmatically. |
| 42 | + |
| 43 | +<DocIf condition={"((serverlessCustomRoles))" === "true"}> |
| 44 | +## Customize access to space |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +Customizing access to a space is available for the following project types only: <DocBadge template="elasticsearch" slug="/serverless/elasticsearch/what-is-elasticsearch-serverless" /> <DocBadge template="security" slug="/serverless/security/what-is-security-serverless" /> |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +As an administrator, you can define custom roles with specific access to certain spaces and features in a project. Refer to <DocLink slug="/serverless/custom-roles"/>. |
| 49 | +</DocIf> |
| 50 | + |
| 51 | +## Delete a space |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +Deleting a space permanently removes the space and all of its contents. |
| 54 | +Find the space on the *Spaces* page and click the trash icon in the Actions column. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +You can't delete the default space, but you can customize it to your liking. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +## Move saved objects between spaces |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +To move saved objects between spaces, you can <DocLink slug="/serverless/saved-objects" section="copy-to-other-spaces">copy objects</DocLink> or <DocLink slug="/serverless/saved-objects" section="import-and-export">export and import objects</DocLink>. |
