Mastering ArcGIS Enterprise Administration

Setting up a collaboration

At a high level, to set up a collaboration, a host must first create a collaboration and invite guests to it. Invited guest administrators must then accept the invitation, in turn providing a response for the host administrator to import. Finally, the guest administrator joins the collaboration workspace. Detailed requirements, instructions, and workflows for creating, joins, and maintaining collaborations can be found in the ArcGIS Enterprise online documentation by searching for About distributed collaboration.

A key component to making collaboration work is ensuring users have equal rights in each organization. The host and guest Portals must use the same type of identity store as well.
