What is a workspace?
A workspace is a boundary. Inside it, search, membership and settings apply. Across workspaces, they usually do not, which is why the boundary matters more than the label.
What matters here
- One account can belong to several
- Members and permissions are per workspace
- Search is usually limited to the current one
- Billing is often attached at this level
- Switching is a deliberate action, not a tab
Personal versus team
A personal workspace holds your own work. A shared workspace holds what a group agrees on. Mixing them is convenient until you need to hand over access or leave a job.
Why boundaries help
Separating contexts means a search for invoice returns the right result instead of three clients and a personal bill. It also means permissions can be honest: the contractor sees one workspace, not everything.
The cost of too many
Every extra workspace is another place to check. Two is common and workable. Five is usually a sign that lists were the right tool instead.
