Workspaces
Enterprise feature. Workspaces are available exclusively on enterprise plans. Contact support@magus.digital for more information.
A workspace is a shared environment for a team. It gives everyone a common home for conversations, making it easy to collaborate, share context, and keep work organized in one place.
Creating a workspace
- Click your account name or avatar in the sidebar to open the account menu.
- Select New workspace.
- Enter a workspace name (for example, “Design Team” or “Engineering”).
- Choose a URL slug: this is the short identifier used in the workspace’s URL (for example,
design-team). Slugs can only contain lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens. - Click Create workspace.
You are the Owner of the new workspace.
Inviting team members
- Go to the workspace’s Settings page.
- Select the Members tab.
- Enter the email address of the person you want to invite.
- Choose their role (see below).
- Click Invite.
Invited members receive an email. If they already have a Magus account, they can accept the invitation to join immediately. New users are prompted to create an account first.
Member roles
| Role | Can chat | Create conversations | Manage members | Workspace settings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Owner | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Editor | Yes | Yes | No | No |
| Member | Yes | No | No | No |
| Observer | Read-only | No | No | No |
Owner has full control over the workspace, including billing, settings, and member management. There can be multiple owners.
Editor can create new conversations and participate in all team conversations.
Member can participate in team conversations but cannot create new ones.
Observer can read team conversations but cannot send messages.
Team conversations vs personal conversations
Within a workspace, there are two kinds of conversations:
Team conversations are visible to all workspace members (according to their roles). They appear in the shared sidebar view. Use these for discussions the whole team should be able to see.
Personal conversations are private to you. They are not visible to other workspace members. Use these for individual work you want to keep separate from shared team activity.
When creating a new conversation, you can choose whether it belongs to the workspace (team) or to yourself (personal).
Workspace settings
Access workspace settings by going to Settings from the workspace menu. From there you can:
- Rename the workspace or change the URL slug.
- Manage members: invite new members, change roles, or remove members.
- Transfer ownership to another member.
- Delete the workspace: this permanently removes all team conversations and cannot be undone.
Switching between workspaces
If you belong to multiple workspaces, you can switch between them using the workspace selector at the top of the sidebar. Each workspace shows its own set of team conversations and members.
