# Managing a default VPC connection for a space
<a name="managing-vpcs.default"></a>

You can set a default VPC connection for a space. If you choose to set a default VPC connection, all workflow runs and Dev Environments in your space will run connected to the default VPC connection. You can override this by associating a different VPC connection in your workflow action or Dev Environment.

You must have the **Space administrator** role or **Power user** role to manage VPC connections at the space level.
