Wiki
Build a knowledge base with spaces, folders, pages, and a rich text editor.
The Wiki is your team's knowledge base inside Spedy. Use it to document processes, write guides, capture decisions, and store any reference material your team needs. Everything is organized, searchable, and always available right alongside your project boards.
Spaces, Folders, and Pages
Wiki content is organized in a simple hierarchy:
- Spaces are the top-level containers. Think of a space as a knowledge base for a specific team, project, or topic -- for example, "Engineering Handbook" or "Product Documentation".
- Folders help you organize pages within a space. You can nest folders as deeply as you need to create a structure that works for your team.
- Pages are where your content lives. Each page has a title and a body that you write and format using the built-in editor.
You can set any page as the homepage of a space, so visitors see the most important content first.
The Rich Text Editor
Spedy's wiki editor gives you a full set of formatting tools to create clear, well-structured documentation:
- Headings to organize sections (H1 through H6)
- Bold, italic, and strikethrough for inline emphasis
- Ordered and unordered lists for step-by-step instructions or bullet points
- Code blocks with syntax highlighting for technical documentation
- Inline code for referencing variable names, commands, or file paths
- Block quotes for callouts or cited material
- Links and images to reference external resources or embed visuals
- Tables for structured data
The editor works like any modern word processor -- just start typing and use the toolbar or keyboard shortcuts to format your content.
Linking a Wiki to a Board
You can connect a wiki space to a board to keep project documentation right next to your tickets. When a wiki is linked to a board, anyone who has access to the board automatically gets access to the wiki as well. This is a great way to keep design docs, runbooks, and meeting notes tied to the project they belong to.
You can also unlink a wiki from a board at any time if you want to manage access separately.
Wiki Roles
Access to each wiki space is controlled through three roles:
| Role | What they can do |
|---|---|
| Admin | Full control -- manage pages, folders, members, and space settings |
| Editor | Create, edit, and delete pages and folders, upload files |
| Reader | View pages and download attachments (read-only) |
How Access Works
Wiki spaces can manage access in two ways:
- Inherit from Board -- If the wiki is linked to a board, members are inherited automatically. Everyone who can access the board can also access the wiki, with roles mapped accordingly.
- Manage Separately -- Members are added and managed independently. This is the default for standalone wiki spaces that aren't tied to a board.
File Attachments
You can upload files to wiki pages -- images, PDFs, spreadsheets, or anything else your documentation needs. Attachments are stored securely and can only be accessed by users who have permission to view the wiki.
