Switching workspaces
You can belong to multiple workspaces with different roles in each. Switch between them from the sidebar profile popup.
📸 Screenshot needed:
workspaces__switcher.png, sidebar profile popup open showing three workspaces in a list, one ticked (active), with "Create workspace" and "Log out" links below.
How to switch
- Click your avatar / initials in the bottom-left of the sidebar.
- The popup shows your email at the top and a list of workspaces you belong to.
- Click any workspace name → you're switched.
Switching:
- Reloads the workspace's data (sidebar updates, workflow list updates, credentials list updates).
- Doesn't log you out.
- Preserves the deep-link you were on if the URL is workspace-agnostic (
/workflows,/settings). Workspace-specific URLs (a/workflow/<id>for a workflow in a different workspace) redirect to/workflowswith a notice.
How the active workspace is shown
Always visible at the top of the sidebar as the workspace name and icon. The URL also includes the workspace ID in some endpoints (/api/workspaces/<id>/…).
If you're an active member of just one workspace, the switcher won't show, you can skip this whole topic.
Joining additional workspaces
Three paths:
- Accept an invite, someone in another workspace invites you by email. Click the link, accept, and the workspace appears in your switcher.
- Create one, see Workspaces → Creating a workspace.
- Org-wide auto-join, on enterprise plans, the org admin can configure workspaces so anyone in the org joins automatically (e.g. a "Shared resources" workspace for everyone).
Leaving a workspace
Settings → Account → Workspaces → row for the workspace → Leave. You'll be prompted to confirm. Reversible only via re-invite.
If you're the sole owner of a workspace, you can't leave, you must first transfer ownership.
Switching keyboard shortcut
⌘⇧W cycles to the next workspace in your list. Useful when you're frequently bouncing between Dev and Prod workspaces.
Browser tabs and multiple workspaces
Each browser tab carries its own active-workspace context. You can have Workspace A open in tab 1 and Workspace B open in tab 2 simultaneously, they don't fight.
This is the best way to compare two workspaces side-by-side.
Tips & gotchas
- Look at the active workspace name before doing anything destructive. A delete in the wrong workspace is annoying to recover from.
- Some MFA configurations are per-workspace. Switching may prompt you to re-verify MFA in some compliance setups (rare).
- Notifications are per-workspace by default. The bell icon shows notifications for the current active workspace. To see all, click All workspaces in the bell popup.
