Adding Spaces to a Project

How to organize spaces into projects

A
Written by AJ Ballantine

When you scan a space in RENDR, it doesn’t have to be assigned to a project right away. You can organize your work anytime by adding spaces to a project later.

This guide walks you through where to find your spaces and how to add them to a project.


Understanding Projects vs. Spaces

Before getting started, it’s important to understand the difference:

  • Projects Tab
    Displays all your projects. Each project groups together one or more spaces.

  • Spaces Tab
    Displays a list of all spaces you’ve scanned.

Note:

  • On iOS, you will only see spaces scanned by the logged-in user.

  • On Web, team managers, project managers, and admins may see spaces across the entire company. (Learn more about user roles here)


How to Add a Space to a Project

There are two ways to add spaces to a project:


Method 1: Add Spaces While Creating a Project

  1. From the main dashboard, tap the blue “+” button

  2. Select New Project

  3. Create your project

  4. Tap Add Spaces

  5. Select From Existing

  6. Choose one or more spaces from the list

    • Spaces are ordered from newest to oldest

  7. Confirm your selection to add them to the project


Method 2: Add a Space from the Spaces Tab

  1. Go to the Spaces Tab

  2. Scroll to find the space you want

  3. Press and hold the space tile

  4. Tap Add to Project

  5. Select the project you want to add it to


FAQs

❓ I can’t find my space — where is it?

Most of the time, this happens because the space was not added to a project yet.

  • Go to the Spaces Tab

  • Look for your scan in the list (sorted by newest first)

Important:

  • On iOS, you will only see spaces scanned by your account

  • On Web, your role may allow you to see spaces from your entire team

If you still don’t see it:

  • Make sure you’re logged into the correct account

  • Check the most recent scans first


❓ How do I add a space to a project?

You have two options:

  • During project creation → Add from existing spaces

  • From the Spaces tab → Press and hold a space and select Add to Project

Both methods accomplish the same thing—use whichever is faster for your workflow.


❓ Can I add multiple spaces to a project at once?

Yes.

When creating a project and selecting From Existing, you can choose multiple spaces at the same time before adding them.


❓ Why don’t I see other team members’ spaces on my phone?

On iOS, you only see spaces that you scanned.

To view team-wide spaces:

  • Use the Web App (if you have the correct permissions)


Best Practice

We recommend organizing spaces into projects as soon as possible to keep your workflow clean and easy to navigate.

Think of it like this:

  • Spaces = individual rooms or scans

  • Projects = the full job
