You can also change an existing target space by choosing the publishing dashboard Target space option.
This option will remove the synchronization between the previously linked spaces - the source space and the target space.

The selected new target space cannot be an existing source or target space. If the selected space is already configured for publishing, the Change button is disabled and a message is displayed warning the space has an existing publishing configuration (either as a source space or a target space).
Publishing configuration must be cleared in a space prior to choosing the space as a new target space using the Clear Publishing configuration.
