Communities in DataSphere
Communities represent a way to organize team work in DataSphere. A community determines the scope of projects and resources and helps set up team activities.
Roles determine what the community members can do. A community member may be a developer or an administrator. For a full list of community members, see the Members tab. A developer can create projects and their resources in the community and run calculations in the IDE. A community administrator can invite new members to the community and manage their roles, change the payment information, and share resources with other community members. For more information about roles in DataSphere, see Access management in DataSphere.
You can attach to a community any link you want to share with its members.
To create resources and run projects in the IDE, link a Yandex Cloud billing account to the community. To learn how to do it, see Linking a billing account.
Sharing DataSphere resources
DataSphere resources are assigned to the project in which they were created. However, communities enable you to use resources from a project in other projects. This helps you save your time and money on new resource creation.
Project administrators can share their project resources among the members of their administered communities (in the Access tab on the resource page). The resource will then appear among the community resources and all community members will be able to use it in their projects.
For example, Julia works with multiple teams and belongs to their communities with different access rights:
- In the
Cat loverscommunity:Admin
(thedatasphere.communities.admin
role).- In the
Counting fencescommunity:Admin
(thedatasphere.communities.admin
role).- In the
Top secretcommunity:Developer
(thedatasphere.communities.developer
role), but noAdmin
privilege in theProject_111project of this community (thedatasphere.community-projects.admin
role).Julia can share the resources of any
Cat loversorCounting fencesprojects in any of these communities. She can also publishProject_111resources in these communities, but can't share them in theTop secretcommunity.
