DataGrip 2023.3 Help

Getting started with Space

If the Space plugin is enabled, and you are not yet logged in to Space, the Space icon Space icon is displayed on the toolbar. To start using Space, you must log in to a Space organization and then either clone a Space project or share your project on Space.

Log in to Space

To log in to Space, you need to provide your organization URL and your account credentials. If you don't have a Space organization, you can create one.

  1. On the toolbar, click Space icon.

  2. Enter your organization URL and click Log In.

    Log in to Space
  3. This will open your default browser. If you are already logged in to the Space web app, click Accept. Otherwise, enter your username and password, and click Log In.

    Space credentials

Once you are logged in to Space, your profile picture is displayed on the toolbar.

Space features, such as code reviews, and merge requests, are available for code that is hosted on Space as part of a Space project. After you are logged in, you can:
