Spaces are the sub-nodes (nested nodes) of the site-level container in the AnswerHub Hierarchy. In turn, they can hold any number of their own spaces. We design this section to guide you in creating API requests that involve spaces.

Notes for spaceIds:
While using the suggested request methods, remember that all spaces are also nodes and that, in almost all cases, fields and parameters that work with nodes will also work with spaces.
- Please refer to the node section if you want to review the details relevant to these requests.
Remember: All concrete sub-types of nodes (questions, answers, or comments) share the same pool of assigned identifiers.
- You can find a space's spaceId in the space's URL after /spaces/. For example: http://apidocs.cloud.answerhub.com/qa/spaces/11/test-space.html (The spaceId in this example is 11).
- You can also find a Space ID by making a request to retrieve a list of all the spaces.
- Anywhere you need a spaceId for a request, the nodeId will serve the same purpose (They are the same number).
