've been debating for a while whether to include spaces capability within taproot or to keep taproot just for public data and to visualize spaces as its own thing .

For now, if you have a spaces enabled account, you can login to Taproot to see the spaces.

⚠️ These screens and features will be updated as and when the spaces specs evolve.

Please reach out to report any bugs/issues.

Spaces tab

A new tab shows up next to collections with all the spaces you have access to or have written to.

Spaces within the same domain are grouped together.

Collections

You can navigate into each space and view the collections within the space.

View the media associated with the records loaded in that space.

And also see the recent space activity.

And view the latest operations performed in that space.

Space management

If you granted access to the manage scope in the login page you can view and manage the space permissions

Manage membership

Add/remove members for member-list type policies

Space Records list + writers

One level further, you can drill into the list of records within the collection

It also shows who wrote each record and allows you to filter by writers.


Schema tab shows the published lexicon (if any) from the network

And also has a separate tab for seeing all the writers and you can navigate to their profiles from there

Space record

You can go further down to view the actual space record.

And see the blobs/media attached to the record

Writing a record

You can also create a new record within the space you have access to, from the new taproot composer.

By the way, you can combine at.new + spaces to have private bookmarks within your space.

 javascript:void(window.location.href='https://at.new/?space=at%3A%2F%2Fdid%3Aplc%3Ajetd3ny6sk5ew5zso534fybr%2Fspace%2Fprivate.bookmarks.for%2Fself#record='+encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify({$type:'community.lexicon.bookmarks.bookmark',subject:location.href,tags:[],createdAt:'{{$now}}'})))

Make sure to login with either all space access

Or custom spaces permissions

To view all these, enable spaces access in developer settings

Or just go to givemesome.space
