Step 1: Navigate to Workspace Settings

From the Organization Settings navigation menu, select Workspaces from the menu.

Step 5: Invite Users to Workspace

The Workspace is now created with no users assigned. By default, the first user row will reflect the User performing the action. If you do not need to add any Users at this point, you can choose to skip this step.

If you have an Organization with a white-label module, you can limit the number of Contacts in a Workspace.

Enabling the contact limit option will result in the Workspace will no longer be able to receive messages from new Contacts once the Workspace has reached the contact limit.

Step 3: Make the necessary changes

Make the intended changes to the users and press SAVE when you are ready.

Note: Billing Admins can only view workspaces and make no changes.

Deleting the Workspace

When a Workspace is no longer in use, it can be deleted by selecting Delete from the Actions menu.

Deleting workspace on respond.io

Doing so will permanently delete all of your Contacts, Channels, fields, and any other data associated with your Workspace.

Deleting your Workspace is a permanent action and will remove the data forever. We will not be able to recover any data after you delete your Workspace.
If you wish to keep any data or information, be sure to export them before deleting your Workspace.

Managing Multiple Workspaces

Accessing a Workspace

When a User logs in to the platform, they will be redirected to a Workspace dashboard by default. The displayed Workspace will default to the last Workspace they interacted with.

If the User does not have access to any Workspace, they will instead be redirected to the settings they have access to. This means that Admins, Billing Admins and User Admins will be redirected to organization settings while members who do not belong to any Workspace will be redirected to their personal settings.

Switching between Workspaces

Users can be invited to multiple Workspaces and they can switch between Workspaces if necessary. To do so, navigate to the Workspace switcher at the side navigation menu.

All the Workspaces that a User has access to will be listed along with the Organization.

Switching between Workspaces on respond.io

A User can also search for the intended Workspace by typing in the Workspace's name.

Switching between Workspaces on respond.io
Switching between SSO and Non-SSO Organization may require some additional steps. You can find more details here.
