Manage Shared Dictionaries

A child workspace can inherit dictionary data with a Manual sharing method from a parent workspace by using the Assign feature. Child workspaces can select which data to inherit instead of receiving all data by default. This method of data sharing prevents irrelevant data from being added to the workspace.

To pull down data from a parent workspace:

Navigate to a dictionary page
1. In the object selector, select a workspace.
2. In the sidebar, select  Summary & Settings.
3. On the Summary & Settings menu, select Dictionaries, and then select a dictionary item.
On the dictionary item page, select Assign.
In the Assign dialog box, select additional dictionary items, and select Assign.
In the Summary & Settings panel, select  Close.

This setting is used in the following apps:
