This feature allows administrators to control the volume of documents stored in the workspace, ensuring that your company's storage needs are met without compromising performance.
Video Tutorial
To further illustrate the process, we've created a video tutorial that walks you through the steps outlined above. Please watch the video below to see how to master workspace storage limits in Paradigm.
Understanding Workspace Storage Limits
Workspace storage limits enable administrators to set default storage capacities for workspaces within their company. This feature is particularly useful for managing large volumes of documents across multiple workspaces. With storage limits in place, admins can prevent individual workspaces from consuming excessive storage, ensuring that the entire organization's storage needs are balanced.
Admin Configuration: Setting Default Storage Limits
As an administrator, you can set default storage limits for all new companies created within your Paradigm instance. To do this:
- Navigate to the Config Keys page.
- Locate the Workspace Storage Limits section.
- Set the desired default storage limit for new companies.
This will ensure that all new companies created within your Paradigm instance have the specified storage limit applied.
Modifying Workspace Storage Limits
Administrators can also modify workspace storage limits during company creation or edit them after the company has been created. To do this:
- Create a new company or edit an existing one.
- In the Company Settings page, locate the Workspace Storage section.
- Adjust the storage limit as needed.
User Experience: Viewing Storage Limits and Utilization
As a user, you can easily view the available and utilized storage space for your workspace. To do this:
- Navigate to the Document List page.
- Look for the Storage section, which displays the available and utilized storage space.
Additionally, when adding new documents to your workspace, you'll be notified if the storage limit is approaching or has been exceeded.
Understanding the Storage Limit Calculation Mechanism
The storage limits within a workspace are calculated by summing the storage used in the "Personal" and "Custom" categories. To ensure compliance with the company's storage limit, the combined usage of these categories must not exceed the maximum storage limit set for the company.
