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
Name Your Workspace
Enter a name (e.g., “Engineering”, “Marketing Q1”, “Product Roadmap”). Optionally add a description and choose a color.
Set Visibility
Choose who can access this workspace:
- Open — All organization members can see and join
- Closed — Only invited members can access
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.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If a workspace is no longer active, you can archive it instead of deleting it.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.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
