Workspaces
Learn about workspaces at Namespace, how ownership and isolation works and why a multi-tenant account can be helpful.
What is a workspace?
Your workspace - sometimes also referred to as a tenant - can enable collaboration on a set of resources.
When joining Namespace, a personal workspace gets created for you. You can immediately start running instances on that workspace. More on how to get started
You can also create multiple workspaces via the dashboard:
Workspace selector in the top-left of the Dashboard
New Workspace Dialog
Where do I find my workspace ID (tenant ID)?
In order for the Namespace team to be able to identify your workspace, it is helpful to share your unique workspace ID. You can find your Workspace ID on the Settings page.
Who can access my workspace?
From creation, each workspace is completely isolated and personal. Namespace ensures high security standards and comprehensive access control mechanisms to help you manage who can access your workspace and what actions they can perform.
An invitation from an owner or admin of the workspace is required to add additional users.
