Workspace

Manage your workspace's general settings, members, teams, and permissions — all in one place.

Workspace settings control how your shared environment is configured. You'll find these under Settings > Workspace. Most workspace settings require admin permissions to change.

General settings

The general section covers the basics of your workspace identity:

  • Name — Your workspace name appears in the sidebar, notifications, and invitations. Pick something your team will recognize.
  • Description — An optional summary of what the workspace is for. This is helpful when your organization has multiple workspaces.

Managing members

Members are the people who have access to your workspace. From this section, you can:

  • Invite new members — Send invitations by email. Invitees will receive a link to join the workspace. You can invite multiple people at once by entering several email addresses.
  • Remove members — Remove someone's access when they leave the team or no longer need it. Removing a member doesn't delete their past contributions — comments, tasks, and documents they created will remain.
  • Change roles — Assign roles to control what each person can do. Opisense comes with built-in roles like Admin, Member, and Viewer. Admins can manage settings and members, while Viewers have read-only access.

Pending invitations appear in the members list with an "Invited" badge. You can resend or cancel invitations at any time.

Organizing teams

Teams let you group members together for easier collaboration and access control. Instead of assigning permissions to individuals one by one, you can assign them to a team and everyone in that team inherits the same access.

To create a team:

  1. Go to Settings > Workspace > Teams
  2. Click Create Team
  3. Give it a name and description
  4. Add members from your workspace

Teams are useful for organizing departments, project groups, or any other logical grouping. A member can belong to multiple teams.

Permissions

Permissions determine what members and teams can do within the workspace. Opisense uses a role-based system with three built-in levels:

  • Admin — Full access to all settings, members, billing, and content
  • Member — Can create and edit content, manage their own tasks, and collaborate with the team
  • Viewer — Read-only access to workspace content, can't create or modify anything

Be careful when assigning the Admin role. Admins can change workspace settings, remove members, and manage billing. Only give this role to people who need it.

You can also create custom roles if the built-in ones don't fit your needs. Custom roles let you mix and match specific permissions to create exactly the access level you want.
