Create workspaces
Create new workspaces to organize teams, projects, and departments within your Comind system.
Workspace creation methods
Access workspace creation through multiple pathways:
- Global navigation - use the main navigation menu to create workspaces
- Direct access - navigate to METAMETA/WORKSPACE/NEW for direct workspace creation
Workspace configuration
When setting up a new workspace, configure these essential elements:
Required fields
- Title - provide a descriptive name for the workspace
- Alias - create a unique identifier for the workspace
External user considerations
For workspaces intended for external users (clients, vendors, or partners):
- Organization affiliation - specify the associated organization
- Access control - configure appropriate permissions for external users
- Security settings - ensure proper isolation and data protection

Workspace types
Internal workspaces
- Team workspaces - dedicated spaces for internal teams and departments
- Project workspaces - temporary or permanent spaces for specific projects
- Department workspaces - organizational units within your company
External workspaces
- Client workspaces - collaborative spaces for client projects
- Vendor workspaces - areas for vendor collaboration and communication
- Partner workspaces - shared spaces for business partnerships
Best practices
Naming conventions
- Descriptive titles - use clear, meaningful workspace names
- Consistent aliases - establish naming patterns for easy identification
- Organization prefixes - include company or department identifiers
Access planning
- User permissions - plan appropriate access levels before inviting users
- App selection - identify which apps will be needed in the workspace
- Data organization - consider how data will be structured and accessed
Workspaces provide the organizational foundation for effective team collaboration and project management within Comind.
