Contextually Aware Spaces in ThreatConnect® are analytic panes that run and display multiple Apps for use with a particular Indicator or Group in a single, convenient place. They are a powerful enrichment tool to automate and improve the way you work with specific Indicator or Group types and provide a way to bring the capabilities of popular third-party tools directly into ThreatConnect. Note Contextually Aware Spaces are used with Apps that apply only to a specific type of Indicator or Group. They are accessed via the [Spaces tab on the legacy Details screen](https://knowledge.threatconnect.com/docs/the-details-screen-legacy#spaces-tab) for an object.  ThreatConnect also includes [Central Spaces](/docs/central-spaces) and [Menu Spaces](/docs/menu-spaces) with Apps that can be applied across ThreatConnect. They are accessed via the **Spaces** option on the top navigation bar. Important Before you can add an App to a Space, a System Administrator must install the App. System Administrators may install Spaces Apps from the **TC Exchange****™ Settings** screen by selecting **Apps** from the**Type**dropdown at the upper left of the screen and **Spaces Apps** from the **App Type** dropdown next to the **Type**dropdown. See the “TC Exchange Settings Screen” section of *ThreatConnect System Administration Guide* for more information. ## Before You Start | Minimum Role(s) | Organization role of Read Only User | | --- | --- | | Prerequisites | An [Indicator or Group](https://training.threatconnect.com/learn/article/the-threatconnect-data-model-kb-article) for which a Contextually Aware Spaces App can be configured; a Contextually Aware Spaces App installed by a System Administrator | ## Adding and Configuring a Contextually Aware Spaces App 1.
