We've created this "Get Started" guide to help you set up your location and build on the basics. Explore how to save time and provide excellent service to members with Spacebring.
Introduction
To begin, familiarize yourself with several key concepts:
Location — a specific physical place or address where your space site is situated. Only the location administrator can change location settings. Location Settings apply to a particular location only.
Network — the collection of locations that belong to your company in the unique instance of Spacebring. Only the owner has access to and can manage Network Settings. Changes apply immediately to all locations.

Steps to set up your network:
The owner needs to go to Spacebring.
On the left-side panel, click (...) next to your network name > Network Settings > General page.
Set up a custom domain, an email footer, customize the look of your Member Web Portal, and add your policies' text.
