# Editing a space


Project members can edit a space at any time to change certain configurations. Before editing a space, make sure that you have saved any changes to your work in that space.

**Note**  
A space's name and IDE application cannot be changed.

To edit configurations for a space, complete the following steps:

1. Navigate to Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio using the URL from your admin and log in using your SSO or AWS credentials. 

1. Navigate to the project you want to edit a space in. You can do this by choosing **Browse all projects** from the center menu.

1.  In the **Build** menu, choose **Spaces** to navigate to the **Spaces** tab on the **Compute** page.

1.  Choose the three-dot **Actions** menu next to the space you want to edit. Then choose **Configure space**.

1. Make the desired changes, then choose **Save and restart** if the space is running, or **Save and start** if the space is stopped.

**Note**  
Saving changes to a running space requires a restart, and any unsaved changes will be lost.
