Workspaces

Keep separate companies, clients or areas of your life in their own containers, each with its own members, projects, goals and plugins

A workspace is a container for a set of projects, goals, actions, meetings and CRM data, with its own members and roles. Most people have one per company or client, plus a personal one; you can belong to as many as you need and switch between them from the top of the sidebar. Everything you see in the sidebar sections — Align, Deliver, Connect and Amplify — belongs to the workspace you are in.

Where to find it

The workspace switcher is at the top of the sidebar; click it to change workspace, open its settings, or create a new one. The full list is at /workspaces, and /workspaces/new creates one. Workspace settings are reached from the switcher or from the Settings link on a workspace card.

How to create a workspace

  1. Click the workspace switcher and choose Create Workspace, or click New Workspace on the Workspaces page.
  2. Enter a Workspace Name. The Slug fills in automatically and appears in URLs; you can edit it before creating, not after.
  3. Add a Description, choose a Workspace Type (Team or Organization) and a Home page layout.
  4. Click Create Workspace. You become its owner.

How to invite someone

  1. Open workspace settings and go to Members.
  2. Click Invite member, search for an existing user by name or email, or enter an email address.
  3. Choose a Role — Admin - Can manage members and settings, Member - Can view and edit content or Viewer - Read-only access — and send.

Someone who already has an account is added straight away. Anyone else gets an invitation link that expires after 7 days; Pending invitations on the same tab lets you copy the link, resend it with a fresh link, or cancel it. Owners and admins can change a member's role (Edit role) or remove them (Remove member); the owner cannot be removed.

Roles

RoleWhat they can do
OwnerEverything, including changing roles and deleting the workspace
AdminManage members, settings, integrations and plugins; full access to content
MemberCreate and edit projects, actions, goals, meetings and CRM records
ViewerRead everything; cannot change content or settings
GuestNot a workspace role: someone added to a specific project only. They see that project and nothing else, and are listed under Project guests on the Members tab. Manage them on the project's Access tab.

Team membership also grants access: if a team is linked to a workspace, its members can use the workspace as members without an invitation.

Workspace settings

Owners and admins open settings from the switcher. The tabs are:

  • General — name, slug, type, logo, the description and instructions Zoe sees in this workspace, your default workspace and home layout.
  • Members — members, project guests and pending invitations.
  • Teams — teams linked to this workspace, teams available to link, and teams linked elsewhere.
  • Features — switches for product behaviours such as advanced action features, the daily and weekly plan banners and email notifications.
  • Integrations — email account, Postmark, Slack, Zulip, Matrix, Sentry, Notion and Fireflies for this workspace.
  • Plugins — turn plugins such as CRM, OKRs and Product Management on or off. See Plugins.
  • Ceremonies — recurring team meetings and their agendas.
  • Danger zone — delete the workspace (owners only; type its name to confirm).

See Workspace settings for the full reference.

How it connects

  • Members, roles and access — roles, invitations, guests, public and restricted projects in one place: Members, roles & access.

  • Teams — a team is a group of people; link it to a workspace under Teams to give everyone in it access at once.

  • Projects — every project lives in one workspace; a Restricted project limits it to its own members and workspace admins.

  • Plugins — plugins are enabled per workspace, and their data (CRM contacts, OKRs) stays inside it.

  • Notifications — you can switch email off for one workspace without touching the others.

FAQ

Can I move projects or contacts between workspaces? Not yet. Create them in the workspace they belong to.

Which workspace opens when I follow a link that does not name one? Your default workspace. Set it under General in the settings of the workspace you want.

What happens if I leave a workspace? You lose access to it; nothing is deleted, and other members keep working as before.

Can I delete a workspace? Owners can, from Danger zone. It removes everything in the workspace and cannot be undone.
