A space in Velory can represent any type of physical room or storage area. For example, you can connect conference room equipment to a space in Velory to keep a clear overview of what hardware is located there. You can set it up as a virtual room to keep track of devices that aren’t located in a physical space.

To move a device from a space, follow these steps:
- Click on the device name and reassign it directly from the device page.
- Or, click on the three dots next to the device, select Reassign device, and use the drop-down menu to choose a new assignment.

Good to know
-
To remove a space, click on the three dots in the top corner of the details view. You will need to confirm the action before the space is deleted.
👉 Important: If the space contains devices, they will automatically be marked as unassigned. This means that the devices are not deleted, only detached from the space. Note also that removing a space cannot be undone.
- If your company has the End-of-Lifecycle functionality enabled and offers device return flows, you may see an automatically created space called Returned devices. This space is locked, which means you cannot edit or delete it. However, you can manually assign devices to this space and also reassign them from it.
