 == Spaces
 
-Spaces enable you to organize your dashboards and other saved
-objects into meaningful categories. Once inside a space, you see only
-the dashboards and saved objects that belong to that space.
+You can define multiple spaces in a single {kib} instance from the **Spaces** menu. Each space has its own navigation and saved objects, and users can only access the spaces that they have been granted access to. This access is based on user roles, and a given role can have different permissions per space.
 
 {kib} creates a default space for you.
-After you create your own
-spaces, you're asked to choose a space when you log in to {kib}. You can change your
-current space at any time by using the menu.
+When you create more spaces, users are asked to choose a space when they log in to {kib}, and can change their
+current space at any time from the top menu.

 The URL identifier is a short text string that becomes part of the
 {kib} URL when you are inside that space. {kib} suggests a URL identifier based
 on the name of your space, but you can customize the identifier to your liking.
 You cannot change the space identifier once you create the space.
 
-{kib} also has an <<spaces-api, API>>
-if you prefer to create spaces programmatically.
+. Select a **Solution view**. This setting controls the navigation that all users of the space will get:

-=== Control feature access based on user privileges
+=== Define access to a space
 
-When using {kib} with security, you can configure applications and features
-based on your users’ privileges. This means different roles can have access
-to different features in the same space.
-Power users might have privileges to create and edit visualizations and dashboards,
-while analysts or executives might have read-only privileges for *Dashboard* and *Canvas*.
-Refer to <<adding_kibana_privileges>> for details.
+Users can access spaces based on the roles that they have.

+* Certain reserved roles can view and access all spaces by default. You can't prevent those roles from accessing a space. Instead, you can grant different roles to your users.
+* When <<kibana-role-management,creating or editing a role>>, you can define which existing spaces that role can access, and with which permissions.
+* When editing a space, you can assign roles to the space and define the permissions within the space for these roles. To do that, go to the **Permissions** tab of the space you're editing.
++
+When a role is assigned to _All Spaces_, you can't remove its access from the space settings. You must instead edit the role to give it more granular access to individual spaces.
