Important

  • If you cannot access a newly launched Workspace, check your browser’s configuration settings. Your browser must allow pop-up windows from Domino.

  • By default, Domino limits each user to four Workspaces per Project. To change this setting, contact your Domino administrator.

To start a Workspace session:

  1. Click Workspaces from the Project menu to open the Workspaces dashboard.

  3. Enter a name for your session, choose a hardware tier, and choose an Environment. The Workspace IDEs available to you are determined by the Environment you choose, and they update dynamically in the launch modal.

  4. After you have finished configuring, click Launch to start your session. This opens a loading screen for your session that will automatically redirect you to the hosted Workspace when it’s ready.

To re-launch a previous Workspace with access to the files as they were at the beginning of that session, first, select the box to the left of that Workspace. Then, click Relaunch with Original Version to start a Workspace with the same configuration and version of the file contents.
