What is a Workspace?

A workspace is a container for related projects. Think of it as a folder for a team, department, or initiative. Each workspace can hold multiple projects and has its own set of members and permissions.

Creating a Workspace

1

Open the Sidebar

Click the + button next to Workspaces in the left sidebar.
2

Name Your Workspace

Enter a name (e.g., “Engineering”, “Marketing Q1”, “Product Roadmap”). Optionally add a description and choose a color.
3

Set Visibility

Choose who can access this workspace:
  • Open — All organization members can see and join
  • Closed — Only invited members can access
4

Invite Members

Add team members to the workspace. You can set workspace-level roles (Admin or Member).

Managing Workspaces

Workspace Settings

Click the gear icon next to the workspace name to access settings:
  • General — Name, description, color, and icon
  • Members — Add or remove members, change roles
  • Permissions — Control who can create projects, invite members, or delete items
  • Notifications — Default notification preferences for all projects in this workspace

Reordering Workspaces

Drag and drop workspaces in the sidebar to reorder them. Your custom order is saved per user — it does not affect other team members.
Use the Collapse All button at the top of the sidebar to minimize all workspaces and focus on the one you need.

Archiving a Workspace

If a workspace is no longer active, you can archive it instead of deleting it. Archived workspaces are hidden from the sidebar but can be restored at any time from Settings > Archived Workspaces.
Deleting a workspace permanently removes all its projects, boards, and items. This action cannot be undone. Archive instead if you may need the data later.

Workspace Templates

You can save any workspace as a template to reuse its structure (projects, boards, columns, and groups) without copying the actual items. Go to Workspace Settings > Save as Template.

Best Practices

  • One workspace per team — Engineering, Design, Marketing, Sales
  • Use colors to visually distinguish workspaces in the sidebar
  • Keep it flat — Avoid deeply nested structures. Use groups within boards for sub-categories
  • Archive regularly — Move completed initiative workspaces to the archive to keep the sidebar clean
