# Several workspaces

Build Spaces, sidebars of your own that mix rows from any of your workspaces, pick them in the workspace switcher, and keep one bell and the Everywhere lists across workspaces.

If you belong to more than one workspace, you work in one at a time and switch with the workspace switcher in the top bar. To keep what matters from several workspaces in one place, build a **Space**: a sidebar you name and fill yourself, with sections and rows from any of your workspaces. Keep several ("Morning", "Support", "Mail") and pick one in the same switcher.

Spaces and the order of your workspaces are yours alone, the same on every device. Billing, members, roles and settings stay per workspace. Nothing changes for someone in one workspace.

## Build a Space

**1. Open New Space**

Open the workspace switcher and choose **New Space**. Start blank, from a copy of a workspace's own sidebar, or from a starter Space its admins published.

**2. Name it**

Give it a name, an icon and a colour. The switcher shows them while the Space is picked.

**3. Add sections and rows**

Under **Add from**, each of your workspaces has a tab with what it offers: its whole built-in sections (kept up to date), inbox folders, teams, views, mail accounts, boxes and folders, and pages. **Every workspace** adds the Everywhere lists. Add sections to group rows, and drag rows and sections into order. Give a row a name of its own or choose its number if you like.

## Pick a Space or a workspace

The switcher lists your Spaces above your workspaces. Picking a workspace shows its own sidebar. Picking a Space shows that Space's rows and keeps the workspace you are in. **Alt** with **1** to **9** picks a Space; **Ctrl+Alt** (**⌘⌥** on a Mac) with **1** to **9** picks a workspace.

Rows of the workspace you are in look and work exactly as in its sidebar. A row of another workspace carries that workspace's small badge ("In Acme" when you point at it), shows its live numbers, and opens in that workspace at once, without reloading; the Space stays picked. To hide the badges, turn them off when you edit the Space.

Each Space has a menu in the switcher to **Edit**, **Duplicate**, move it up or down, or **Delete** it. Inside a Space, a row's menu changes its number, renames it in this Space, moves it to another section, adds it to another Space too, or removes it.

## Starter Spaces

A workspace's admins can publish a starter Space in **Settings, General**: a sidebar of that workspace that everyone there finds under **New Space**. A Space started from it is your own copy; later changes to the starter do not change it.

## The Everywhere lists

**My tickets** gathers the open tickets assigned to you in every workspace, newest activity first. **All mail** gathers the inboxes of your mail accounts in every workspace that has Collab. Each row carries its workspace's badge; opening one takes you to it in its workspace. Add them to a Space from the **Every workspace** tab, or open them from the command palette.

## Order and hide workspaces

Go to **Settings, Account, Workspaces**.

- **Order**: drag a workspace by its handle, or focus the handle and press **Alt** with the up or down arrow. The switcher and its number keys follow this order.
- **Hide a workspace**: turn it off in the list. A hidden workspace folds away in the switcher and stays out of the bell and the Everywhere lists.

## Notifications

The bell lists every workspace's notifications, each with its workspace's badge, and **Mark all read** clears them everywhere. The desktop app's badge counts them all. A notification of another workspace opens in that workspace. Links in notification emails name their workspace, so they open in the right one too.

> **Each workspace's own rules**
>
> Every list and number is asked of each workspace separately, with your role there and its private teams. A ticket in a private team you are not on in one workspace never shows up, even next to another workspace where you can see everything.

## Several accounts

Spaces belong to the account you are signed in with and offer only its workspaces. If you are signed in to more than one account in the same browser, switching accounts switches Spaces too.
