Create or join a workspace
1
Choose your workspace
To start a new one, open the workspace switcher beside the workspace name and select Create workspace. Enter a workspace name; a company website is optional.
2
Join an existing workspace
If someone invited you by email or shared an invite link, sign in and follow the invitation to join. You can also join with a confirmed company email address if an admin has enabled Join by email domain in Settings > Workspace > General. This joins you as User Lite; personal email providers are not eligible for domain joining.
Choose roles and invite people
Owner is the person who owns the workspace. Admin runs its members, billing, and settings and can hire specialist workers. Choose the other roles based on what someone needs to do:
The Owner can also manage the workspace like an Admin. Roles are separate from a worker’s manager permissions: access to a worker doesn’t by itself make someone its manager.
1
Open Members
In the workspace you want to manage, go to Settings > Workspace > Members and select Invite. You need to be an Owner or Admin to invite members.
2
Choose a role and invitation method
Select the person’s role, then enter their email address to invite them directly. For User, User Lite, or Guest, you can instead create and share an invite link for that role. Admin invitations are by email only. Share links expire and can be revoked.
3
Check pending invitations
Until someone joins, their email invitation appears under Pending invitations in Members. You can revoke it there if needed.
A workspace invitation adds someone to the workspace, not automatically to a team or a private worker. For team membership, open Settings > Workspace > Teams and add people who are already in this workspace. See Teams for sharing workers within a team.
Understand worker access
A worker’s visibility determines whether everyone in the workspace can reach it. New hires default to Whole workspace; workers hired before the workspace rollout remain Private:- Whole workspace: Members other than Guests can reach the worker without being added to a team. A Guest still needs explicit access.
- Private: Only the worker’s owner and people granted access, such as through a team or co-manager assignment, can reach it. To share one, follow the worker-settings or team-directory steps in Teams.
Plans and usage belong to the workspace
Your workspace owns its workers, billing, and shared Work Credits; usage isn’t a separate allowance for each person. You can add unlimited members with no per-seat charge. The included plan sizes are Starter: 2 workers and 2,000 Work Credits and Business: 5 workers and 7,000 Work Credits. A 15-day Business trial at the included size starts without a card. For current plan choices and billing changes, use Settings > Workspace > Billing (Owner or Admin). Check the options there before making changes; this guide isn’t a pricing quote.If something looks missing
- Can’t join by domain? Ask an admin whether Join by email domain is enabled for your confirmed company email domain. A personal-provider address won’t qualify; request an invitation instead.
- Can’t see a worker? Check whether it’s Private and ask its manager about team or individual access. Joining a workspace alone doesn’t open private workers.
- Can’t hire or change billing? Check your workspace role. User Lite can’t hire; billing is managed by Owners and Admins.
