A Workspace is a temporary digital storage space where you can keep all your apps, data tables, data sources, reports, lookups, etc. that you create in Quixy. Each workspace is unique and can be viewed as a logical separation between the related entities like applications, data tables, and so on.

Example Use Case: Human Resources Management
Imagine you are a HR manager at a medium-sized company, and you want to streamline your HR processes using Quixy. You decide to create a workspace specifically for HR management.
In this workspace, you can create various applications to automate different HR processes. For example:
Additionally, within the HR management workspace, you can create data tables to store relevant information such as leave records, training history, and recruitment data. You can also set up data sources to integrate external systems such as payroll software or employee performance management tools.
By organizing your HR processes in a dedicated workspace, you can efficiently manage all your applications, data tables, and data sources related to HR management in one place, making it easier to track, analyze, and optimize your HR operations.
The platform does not have a permanent workspace; any workspace created in Quixy can be deleted. However, you must have at least one workspace in the platform to create an app, data table, data source, and so on. When you first log in to the platform, you will be given a default workspace, so you can start creating your applications right away.
Just like the organization admin, we also have a workspace admin to manage only the workspace to which he/she is assigned. Unlike the organization admin, the workspace admin will have limited provisions like creating apps, data tables, data sources, reports etc.
Important
There are no restrictions in Quixy on creating multiple workspaces. However, you cannot combine any two workspaces at the same time, and you cannot transfer the entities (Apps, data tables, lookups, etc.) created in one workspace to another.
However, you can link applications from different workspaces using triggers and connect data tables to create a data source.
If you're using a new account and haven't created any workspaces yet, here's how you can easily create one:
An Organizational Admin is the only one who can create workspaces, including multiple ones. To manage the artifacts in these workspaces, the Organizational Admin can appoint Workspace Admins for each workspace. Any user in the platform can become a Workspace Admin, and a user can be an admin for multiple workspaces, depending on the Organization's requirements.
Important
A Workspace Admin can only organize the items in a workspace where they are assigned as an admin.
Copying a workspace is a straightforward process. When you copy a workspace, you duplicate all its applications, data functions, lookups, data tables, integrations, and more into a new workspace. Once copied, you can modify the new workspace as needed without affecting the original.
Copying a workspace can be useful for several reasons:
Caution
A workspace admin can create a data table but cannot view its contents without being a data admin. Data admins have the authority to view, edit, delete, and update data in a table but cannot create new tables. Know more about Data Admin..
