Admins can edit the existing layouts for the detail page of each existing App to create a custom Workspace.
A Workspace can include any of the existing Widgets: Form, Activity Timeline, Related Lists, and Charts, among others. Refer to our library to see all the out-of-the-box widgets available to you in FreeAgent. Let's get started!
User Permissions: Only Administrators and App Admins can use this feature.
In this tutorial, we will cover the following topics:
Navigate to Workspace
Open the menu and go to Settings > Apps, then select your desired app. Once you're in your chosen app you'll see a button in the top right-hand corner labelled 'Edit Workspace'.
Create a New Workspace
Creating a new workspace is a simple 3-step process.
Step 1 - Add New Panel
Now you will need to customize your Workspace. You can rearrange the existing panels or start adding new ones by clicking the 'Add New Panel' button in the right-hand corner. Each of these Panels represents the space dedicated on the detail page for the Widget you will select as part of the next step.
You can rearrange the Panels in your Workspace by dragging and dropping them at the desired location as there are three different layout options, split-screen, tabs, or a combination of both. You also have the option to resize each Panel to create the perfect layout.
Note: to drag the panels you need to click and hold on the title of the panel you would like to move.
Step 2 - Add a Widget
Once you have added a new panel you will need to select a Widget. The required information will vary according to the Widget type you select. For most of them, all you need to do is specify the following information:
FIELD | DESCRIPTION |
Type | Attachments, Meeting, Phone Call, Note... |
Title | Name that will be displayed on the detail page. |
Frame ID | This ID can be anything that will help you identify your Widget, as long as it doesn't contain any spaces. |
Integration | Select one of your available integrations if the widget should interact with it. |
For the full list of Widgets, you can add to your panels, refer to our: Widget Library
Step 3 - Save
Once you have added all the widgets you need to your Workspace, don't forget to save your changes. If you don't want to keep the changes made to the Workspace, simply exit the page by navigating to any other FreeAgent page. If you see the 'Unsaved Changes' warning, simply click on 'Don't Save'.
Once you have clicked 'Save' the changes made to your Workspace will be available to you and your team right away.
