Automating Google Workspace (GWS) & more with Apps Script
Lesson 3
1. Creating a Document Workspace
Click Site Actions, then New Site, then select Document Workspace.
Then type the name of the page and the URL address.
2. Configuration of the Document
Workspace
By default there are 5 elements on the Document Workspace
Announcements, Shared Documents, Tasks, Members and Links.
Document Workspace works perfectly to work on the compilation of a single document, on a
collaboration effort by a group or team.
Editor's Notes
I would say SharePoint is like Facebook. Was it possible before Facebook to communicate with other people and show them pictures and tell them about yourself? Sure. But FaceBook made it easier, more effective, and probably fun. How? Through “functionalities”. Software. Same with SharePoint. Was it possible before SharePoint to work with your team, meet with your team, work together with other people? Sure. You talk, you meet, you take notes, you make decisions. But with SharePoint that multi-dimensional process, was made just easier and more effective. How? Functionalities. Software. 2. Every IT shop wants to consolidate their applications to make life easier to the end users. It’s hard to maintain ,and to learn and train, when you have dozens of business applications. You also save on infrastructure (Servers). SharePoint it’s a platform, where you can do anything you want.3. It’s all about speed now a days. A very american concept is brought to speed with SharePoint: DIY. Do it yourselve. But you can only DYI if it is easy. And with SharePoint given that the majority of people in this planet, since the computers exploted, use Microsoft Office: excel, word, etc. and became used to them. So why complicate things.
Sites. Single infrastructure. Share documents, manage projects, publish information. Communities. Enhance collaboration tools in a single platform. Search. Help to find info and people (like an available expert, a colleague or a partner)Content. Content Management: document types, retention policies, automatic content sorting. Insights. Business intelligence tools. Make info useful to make decisions. Composites. No code solutions.
