🦉Overview

In SoWork, you can easily create spaces that are only accessible by knowing the room password.

Note: This feature is only available in a paid office.

🐱‍🏍Walkthrough

Make sure you are an Administrator in the space you are trying to work in.

✨ Open your Profile & Account area of your toolbar and select Change Rooms.
