Creating a Workspace

Workspace is a way of isolating resources, such as models and skills, between different users.

Resource Isolation

Each Huawei Cloud account or IAM account has a default workspace, which can be used to view all resources created by the current account on Huawei HiLens.

The table below lists resources that are isolated between different workspaces.

**Table 1** Isolated resources
Navigation Tree	Isolated Resource
Device Management > Devices	Registered HiLens Kit devices and device resources, including skills, cameras, alarms, and firmware versions
Skill Development > Models	Models imported (converted) to Huawei HiLens
Skill Development > Skills	Skill resource created on the console
Data Management (Beta)	Logs generated when devices in different workspaces run skills

The table below lists resources that are shared by all workspaces.

**Table 2** Shared resources
Navigation Tree	Shared Resource
Skill Market	Skills that can be shared in the skill market and skills purchased by the current account

This section uses test and test2 as an example to describe how to allocate workspace. test is the original workspace where device resources are located and test2 is the target workspace for device resource allocation .

Log in to the Huawei HiLens management console. In the navigation pane, select the test workspace from the drop-down list box under Current Workspace.
In the navigation tree on the left, choose Device Management > Devices, select the devices to be allocated, and click the device cards.
The device details page is displayed.
Click Allocate Workspace in the upper right corner.
The Allocate Workspace dialog box is displayed.
Select workspace test2 and click OK.
A message is displayed in the upper right corner, indicating that the devices are allocated successfully. You can switch to the workspace test2 and view the allocated device resources on the Device Management > Devices page.
