A space brief is a short set of questions about one room, such as who uses it, when,
and what has to stay. You attach one of your published question flows to the space,
your client answers it in their portal, and the answers stay with the room. It saves
you from collecting the same facts room by room over email.

Each space has its own **Brief** page. Its header shows the space's name, the project
name and **Brief**.

## What you see here

- **No brief attached**: the space has no brief yet. Moodiri lists your published
  question flows under **Pick a published flow**, each with **Attach**. See
  [Attach a brief](https://docs.moodiri.com/spaces/attach-a-brief).
- **Attached**: the flow's name and description, its status, and the actions
  **View as client** and **Detach**.
- **Submitted**: your client's answers, read-only.

If you have no published flows, the page says so and offers **Create your first flow**.
See [Intake and brief question flows](https://docs.moodiri.com/client-portal/intake-and-brief-question-flows).

## Track brief status

The badge next to the brief's name tells you where your client is:

- **Awaiting**: the brief is attached and your client hasn't started. The page reads
  **Brief sent. The client can answer it from the portal.**
- **In progress**: your client has started. The page shows how many questions they
  have answered so far.
- **Submitted**: your client has finished. Their answers show on the page.

## Preview as the client

Choose **View as client** to see the brief the way your client does, including any
answers they have given so far. The preview is read-only, so nothing you click there
is saved. Use the back arrow to return to the brief.

## Detach a brief

Choose **Detach**, then **Detach** again to confirm. If your client has started, the
confirmation tells you how many in-progress answers will be deleted. Detach a brief to
swap in a different flow, or when the room no longer needs one.

> **Note:** Submitted briefs can't be detached. The page shows **Submitted briefs cannot be detached.**

## Questions

### Can a space have more than one brief?

No. Each space has one brief at a time. To swap it, detach the current brief and attach another one.

### Can I change a brief after my client submits it?

No. Submitted briefs are read-only, so the answers you have used stay as they were given.
