<\/p>\nRejoice, Pagico workspace users! In the upcoming Pagico 8.7, you’ll be able to easily update\u00a0the ownership of one or more containers.<\/p>\n
A container (project or contact) is owned by\u00a0the device (or database) that it was first created on. So for instance, a project that was created on your iPad is “owned” by the iPad app; while a contact that was first created\u00a0on your colleagues’ workstation is owned by that particular database on that device. Only “owners” can perform certain actions to these containers, such as share & un-share in workspaces. And if the owner is removed from a workspace, all its owned data will be brought offline as well.<\/p>\n
This design offers users control on the shared data. If you shared a project with your colleague, then you can take it back (un-share) or delete it whenever you want to. However, things become complex when you want to delete one of your\u00a0projects that was first created on a different device, or when a teammate left your team.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In Pagico 8.7, you’ll be able to quickly sort all shared items in your workspace by their owners. Then, you can simply multi-select then right-click to convert the ownership to your current device.<\/p>\n
