Create and open space plans

Available with the ArcGIS Indoors Spaces extension.

Indoor Space Planner is not configured with a plan when the app is created. You can create plans and modify space assignments to review different scenarios. Modifications to a plan are saved and contained only in that plan.

You must have privileges associated with the default role of Publisher or higher to create plans, and you must have privileges associated with the default role of Data Editor or higher to open and edit plans shared to your organization. If you're using a custom role, the Edit privilege for features must be enabled in ArcGIS Enterprise to open and edit plans.

Note:

If you made a schema change after creating a plan to enable a new functionality, you must create a new plan to access the new functionality. For example, if you added a RESTRICTED field to the Areas table after creating a plan, you must create a new plan to configure restricted hotels.

New plans can be kept private or shared with your organization. Optionally, you can share plans with one or more groups of which you are a member. You can also update the sharing level of existing plans at any time.

Note:

If you share plans with groups, group members can open plans, make changes, review moves, and add comments to your plans in Space Planner. The branch version associated with your plan will still be available to all members of your organization.

Plans cannot be shared to a group that has the Who can be in this group setting configured with the Any organization's members option.

Create a space plan

You can create several plans in Space Planner, and each can be unique to different planning scenarios for your organization.

  1. Click the Options button Options.
  2. Click New Plan.
  3. In the New Plan panel, provide a title and, optionally, a summary describing your plan.
  4. Specify the access type by choosing a Share With option.
  5. Click Create Plan.

    The new plan opens in Space Planner. Any changes you make to the plan are automatically saved.

Open an existing space plan

In Space Planner, you can open plans created by others if the plans are shared to the organization or a group of which you are a member.

  1. Click the Options button Options.
  2. Click Open Plan and choose a plan from the list.
    If the plan you open is using a floor plan that has been updated, an Information dialog box appears with the option to bring in the latest changes, including assignments.
    Note:

    If you have trouble opening the plan, ensure you have the necessary permissions. Contact your Enterprise organization administrator to request access.

    Tip:

    To delete a plan, click the delete button Delete next to the plan. You can only delete a space plan if you created it, unless you are an administrator. Administrators can delete all plans. A plan cannot be deleted while it is open.
