# Spaces

A space is a project that lets you work on a collection of related pages. They allow you to write content, organize pages, add integrations and more.

### Create a space

Click the **+** button next to the **Spaces** header in the sidebar and choose **New space** to create a new space. You can also create a new space inside a [collection](https://gitbook-v2-k5zc8mux5-gitbook.vercel.app/url/gitbook.com/docs/creating-content/content-structure/collection).

You can edit a space’s name by hovering over the name in the [space header](https://gitbook-v2-k5zc8mux5-gitbook.vercel.app/url/gitbook.com/docs/resources/gitbook-ui#space-header).

### Duplicate a space

To duplicate a space, open that space's **Action menu** <picture><source srcset="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2FQ4IsWwmEEi5QM7PSXNsN%2Factions%20-%20dark.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=ebff54f4-9825-4ab0-99bc-633e1c449371" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"><img src="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2F89MTSo5XRpPMVr1T0rxS%2Factions.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=2b5d001e-560a-4f29-8d22-de8163725ca1" alt="The Actions menu icon in GitBook"></picture> in the sidebar and select **Duplicate**.

Duplicating a space will create a copy of the source space, in the same location (organization, collection, sub-collection, etc.).

### Move a space

You can move a space by opening the space’s **Action menu** <picture><source srcset="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2FQ4IsWwmEEi5QM7PSXNsN%2Factions%20-%20dark.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=ebff54f4-9825-4ab0-99bc-633e1c449371" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"><img src="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2F89MTSo5XRpPMVr1T0rxS%2Factions.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=2b5d001e-560a-4f29-8d22-de8163725ca1" alt="The Actions menu icon in GitBook"></picture> in the sidebar, selecting **Move space to…** and choosing a destination. Alternatively, you can drag and drop spaces in the sidebar to move or reorder them.\

You can move spaces between collections within the same organization, as long as you have an [admin role](https://gitbook-v2-k5zc8mux5-gitbook.vercel.app/url/gitbook.com/docs/account-management/member-management/roles).

### Delete a space

You can delete a space by opening the space’s **Action menu** <picture><source srcset="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2FQ4IsWwmEEi5QM7PSXNsN%2Factions%20-%20dark.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=ebff54f4-9825-4ab0-99bc-633e1c449371" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"><img src="https://1050631731-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FNkEGS7hzeqa35sMXQZ4X%2Fuploads%2F89MTSo5XRpPMVr1T0rxS%2Factions.svg?alt=media&#x26;token=2b5d001e-560a-4f29-8d22-de8163725ca1" alt="The Actions menu icon in GitBook"></picture> in the sidebar and selecting **Delete**.
