When you first sign up for Lingo, you'll create a space - your team's central hub for managing and sharing digital assets. This guide will walk you through the initial setup to get your space ready for your team.
Create your space
If you haven't already, create a space for your team.
Enter your space name - this is typically your company or team name
Your space is now created! As the creator, you're automatically assigned as the space Owner with full admin permissions.
Understanding user roles
Your space has different user roles that control access and permissions:
Owner - Full access to everything, including billing and space settings
Admin - Manage assets, users, and space settings (but not billing)
Content Manager - Access the Library to manage and organize assets
Member - View and download from kits and portals. Can be granted edit acess to specific kits. No Library access.
As the space owner, you'll need to invite team members and assign roles based on their needs.
