Workspace Roles

Workspace Roles determine what users can do within individual workspaces in TheyDo. Unlike Organization Roles (which control access to your entire TheyDo account), Workspace Roles are specific to each workspace.

TheyDo offers two types of Workspaces:

Public Workspaces: Accessible by any user in the organization. Use Workspace Roles to control granular editing permissions.

Private Workspaces: Accessible by invite only. Use Workspace Roles to control granular editing permissions.

Organization Admins can add themselves to any Private Workspaces, but aren't added by default.
