Creating Nitro Workspaces

Nitro Workspaces provides data analysts and scientists a schema space in the Nitro database for SQL-based experimentation, exploration, and general data analysis. As an owner of the workspace, data analysts and scientists have read, write, and grant permissions to their personal workspace schema. Workspaces can be individual or Creating a Collaborative Workspace.

The ETL user permission is applied to new workspaces by default. This enables users to transfer work from the development environment to multiple production environments.

2. Select Workspaces from the side menu.

4. Enter the following details:

Creating a Collaborative Workspace

Admins can add multiple users to the same schema in Nitro Workspaces so they can work collaboratively to view and modify tables in other Nitro schemas.
