create a second Team Hub

Anonymous

I do work for 2 different companies.

I have a team hub for my machine shop, I'd like to create a second team hub for a company that I do design work for. Is this possible?

hi @Anonymous , 

 

thanks for posting! Accounts are limited to owning a single team hub, single personal hub, and single drive hub at any given time. An account can be an admin or member of multiple team hubs, and a guest in multiple drive or personal hubs.

 

If you'd like you can choose who can access which projects in your hub so that the work for each company does not cross over. 

 

thanks,

So the work around is to make a new gmail account, start a new fusion account, make a team, give admin access to the main account and basically forget that the gmail account exists, correct?

Here's my case scenario. I run a class of 72 students in a team hub. I have research work that I do for many grad students and professors. I have many students that want to share projects with me. 

 

The students in the team hub are the only ones I want in there. Every semester I create a new project and keep the old semesters as projects for reference. If a researcher comes to me with an idea, I ask them to create a file in fusion and then invite me to the team. I ask the same for students. 

 

The complicated area is where I've been a user for many years and I have a personal hub and a team hub for this one class. Now I'm being asked to phase out of the personal hub and into the team but I can only have one team. I'm not putting all my personal work/research work/etc into the class hub. 

 

I don't understand why we're all limited to one team hub. It feels very limiting and frustrating.

I am having similar frustrations and issues with the way team hubs has  been rolling out.  I do design and consulting work on my personal hub and am not prepared to have it polluted with the team environment.  I have a team hub for my class but after 1 semester  I have 80 students that I wish to get rid of but appear to have no options.

I have to share my very negative feedback about this topic.

First, in the product documentation there isn't a single hint about being limited to 1 Team. One assumes that they're called Teams because represent work groups. But actually we have to share our team across more "real teams" if we need to lead more than one real team. 

All of this while I've been struggling to find my personal hub after learning about it in the self-paced courses, which are based on older software architectures.

So you are promoting the concept of Teams and rolling out personal hubs (that I've never used being a fresh user) to emphasize the collaboration, but then one has to use Projects to manage teams, and let real projects be made of Folders.. not looking good.

Am I wrong?

I see I'm late to the complaints about this limitation.  In our case, we are a mostly a consulting doing design for customers.  We also have our own products.  Managing user customer and engineer access to the entire Team and then to individual projects is a bigger, more complex problem than doing it just by Team.

 

Why not an add-on feature where we could purchase ownership / management of another team?  Something like a price point that's less than the full cost of another F360 license?

At least we can now leave teams! It's the little things that really matter 😉
