A target workspace can be used to store everything related to designing in the software including: design source data, such as components, schematics, and PCB files; design release data, such as Gerber and ODB++ data; and installations and updates of the software itself. You can only sign in to a target workspace or server that has already been installed or activated and has appropriate user credentials defined.
