Try a change before it goes live, or make a copy. A new Space starts empty. You give it a name, then Notis, or your own coding agent, builds what goes inside: pages, databases, skills and automations. ## Create a Space 1. In your sidebar, hover **Spaces** and click **+** (**New Space**). 2. Type a name and press Enter. The new Space opens. Press Escape, or leave the name empty, to cancel. To create a Space inside another one, hover that Space and click its **+**, or choose **New Space** in its **…** menu. You can also just ask Notis: > "Create a Space for the Acme launch, with a page for its tasks." ## Ask Notis to build it An empty Space shows **Ask Notis to fill this Space** with a few ideas: **Task board**, **Contacts from my emails**, **Weekly meeting recap** and **Project plan**. Click one and a new chat opens with the request already written. Change it if you like, then send it. Or describe what you want in your own words: > "Add a page to my Hiring Space that lists candidates by stage, with a card for each one." > "Build a dashboard in my Sales Space with this month's deals and a chart per stage." Then keep refining in the same chat: > "Add a priority field to the tasks." > "Show the projects as a table instead of cards." Notis builds the pages on your [Cloud Computer](/tools/cloud-computer), which every paid plan includes, and sends you a link to the page once the change is live. Until then, the current version of your Space keeps working. Editing a record, a note or an automation doesn't need a rebuild: those changes save right away. ## Try a change before it goes live Not sure yet? Ask for a draft first, for example *"Just show me a draft."* You get a link to a **Preview** of the page: * Look around and try it. Buttons really work in a preview: **Actions affect your data.** * Click **Publish** to make it the live version, or **Discard preview** to drop it. If the Space changes in the meantime, the preview goes out of date. Ask for a new one. ## Make a copy Ask Notis to duplicate a Space you can edit: > "Make a copy of my Client onboarding Space." * The copy is a new Space of your own, with its sub-Spaces, pages, databases, skills and automations. Its automations start paused, so nothing runs twice. * Records come along unless you ask for the structure only. * The people the original is shared with don't come along: the copy stays yours until you [share it](/spaces/share-a-space). * It's named after the original with "copy" at the end, unless you give it a name. Notis can also place it inside another Space. ## Build it with your own coding agent Prefer Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another coding agent? [Connect it to Notis](/agents/overview) with the Notis CLI, then ask it to build or change a Space, in the same words you'd use with Notis. This works on every plan, Free included. * Your Space keeps working while your agent prepares the change. The new version goes live once its checks pass. * Changes another Editor made in the meantime are kept, not overwritten. * Want to look first? Ask for a preview: your agent gives you the link, and you choose **Publish** or **Discard preview**. * To go back to an earlier design, ask your agent. It brings it back as a new version. Your records, and anything the Space already did, stay as they are. * If an update doesn't finish, your agent checks what is live before trying again. You don't need to start a new Space. * Publishing to the [Space Store](/spaces/space-store) is a separate step: your agent waits for your yes. ## Good to know * **Onboarding**: some Spaces come with their own setup guide. Their **…** menu then shows **Onboarding**, which opens a new chat with a request such as *"Help me set up Notes."* ready for you to send. * **Your Cloud Computer**: a Space that wants to use your [Cloud Computer](/tools/cloud-computer) asks first, with **Allow this Space to use your cloud computer?** Choose **Allow** or **Not now**. It only ever uses your own Cloud Computer, as you, while you have the Space open, and it asks again whenever the Space's code changes. * **Old Notis App links** open the Space that replaced the App. ## Related * [Overview](/spaces/overview): what a Space is and what it uses. * [Share a Space](/spaces/share-a-space): build it together with other Editors. * [Space Store](/spaces/space-store): install a ready-made Space, or publish yours. * [Skills in Spaces](/spaces/skills-in-spaces): the skills a Space uses. * [Connect a coding agent](/agents/overview): give Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other agents access to Notis. * [Cloud Computer](/tools/cloud-computer): where Notis does the building.
