IndustrialCanvasInstanceSpace is required to set up and use Canvas. The capabilities in Set up labels are for the labels feature.

Set up labels

The first time you set up labels, assign these capabilities:

Set data model capability for labels

Navigate to Admin > Access management > Groups. Set datamodels:write with scope SolutionTagsInstanceSpace so CDF can create the labels instance space when you select Set up labels.
2

Create labels instance space

Navigate to Flows > Canvas and select Set up labels. This creates the labels instance space if it doesn’t already exist.
3

Set data model instance capabilities

After setup, go back to Groups. Set datamodelinstances:read and datamodelinstances:write with scope SolutionTagsInstanceSpace to create, edit, and delete labels.
After setup, Manage labels is available on the canvas overview.

Set data model instance capability

Set datamodelinstances:read and datamodelinstances:write with scope SolutionTagsInstanceSpace. read lets users view labels. write lets them add and remove labels from a canvas. If read is set and write is not set, users can view labels but cannot change them.
