Compass
The Compass
is the gateway to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. It lets you access roles and apps in
the platform.
Role
A role lets you use a selected group of apps and services useful for
a specific job. You can have multiple roles and your administrator can create a
custom role for you.
As a user of
the Inspect with
SOLIDWORKS Inspector app,
you are assigned to the
Collaborative Designer for
SOLIDWORKS role. This role lets you:
- Search for, store, and manage files in collaborative spaces
on the platform
- Share files with team members and collaborate using product
lifecycle management features
- Access additional apps and services such as the 3DEXPERIENCE Marketplace
All SOLIDWORKS users working with the 3DEXPERIENCE
platform are also assigned to the
3DSwymer
and Collaborative Industry Innovator roles.
These roles include access to 3DSpace, 3DSearch, 3DDrive, and 3DPlay apps and other apps that help you manage your workflow.
Collaborative Spaces
A collaborative space is a secure area on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform where you can store and manage files and use version
control features to collaborate with team members. Collaborative spaces can manage
files for projects and content libraries. You can have access to multiple
collaborative spaces.
Collaborative space owners and administrators can add members to
spaces and assign access roles that include permissions to perform actions such as
reading, evaluating, creating, and editing files.
Users with certain permissions can also create new collaborative spaces,
lock
files so other team members cannot modify them, and move files through maturity
states such as In Work, Frozen, or Released.
