Spaces

A Space is an isolated content silo within an organization. Spaces are completely independent — content, assets, users, and configuration in one space are not accessible from another.

What spaces contain

Space
├── Environments (dev, staging, production)
├── Members (users with space-level roles)
└── API Keys

Use cases

• Multiple storefronts — One space per brand or region
• Separation of concerns — Isolate your B2C and B2B content
• Access control — Give agency teams access to only the spaces they manage

Space roles

Role	Capabilities
admin	Full access to the space
editor	Create, edit, and publish content
author	Create and edit content (cannot publish)

Default space

A Default Space is created automatically with the default organization. It contains a single main environment and the default set of built-in content models.

Switching spaces

Use the space switcher in the sidebar to move between spaces within the current organization. The entire UI re-mounts when switching spaces to ensure no stale state carries over.

API context

Requests scope to a space using the X-Alokai CMS-Space header. If omitted or the space isn’t found, the middleware falls back to the first available space.
