Administrator Training

Step 04: Configuring Workspace Settings

Update the foundational details and options in the Settings tab. These settings determine what your users will see and access, and they typically take less than a minute to configure for each new deal.

This video serves as a training module for administrators on how to configure workspace settings in CapLinked, a virtual data room platform. Most of these settings are designed to be set once and reused for future deals, making the setup process very efficient.

Key Workspace Settings Covered:

  • Workspace Preferences: Toggle default daily notification emails for workspace members, and choose whether users land on the Overview tab or the Files tab when entering the workspace, and more (0:14-1:28).
  • Q&A Options: Choose between classic Q&A or the new EZ Q&A feature, which lets a designated non-admin permission group respond directly to their fellow non-admins' questions — or disable Q&A entirely if your workspace doesn't need it (1:28-2:06).
  • File Display & Security Controls: Hide file indexing and version badges/descriptions from non-admin members, and strengthen security by enforcing two-factor enrollment, requiring disclaimer signatures, and setting password expiration intervals for workspace members (2:06-4:25).
