What Are Workspaces?
A workspace is the main container for a product, project, or team's work inside Varai Sprints. Everything you do — creating releases, running sprints, tracking tasks, and reporting bugs — happens within a workspace.
Workspaces and your organization
Your organization is the top-level account. Think of it as your company or team. Inside the organization you can create as many workspaces as you need.
Organization (e.g., "Acme Corp")
├── Workspace: Mobile App
├── Workspace: Backend Platform
└── Workspace: Customer Portal
Each workspace is fully independent:
- It has its own releases, sprints, tasks, and issues.
- It has its own member list and role assignments.
- Data from one workspace does not appear in another.
When to create multiple workspaces
| Scenario | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| One product, one team | One workspace is enough |
| Multiple products | One workspace per product |
| Large product with sub-teams | Consider one workspace per major sub-team or component |
| Temporary project or experiment | Create a dedicated workspace; archive it when done |
A person can be a member of multiple workspaces with different roles in each. For example, someone might be an Admin in the "Mobile App" workspace and a Member in the "Backend Platform" workspace.
Workspace dashboard
The Dashboard inside a workspace gives you a bird's-eye view of:
- Currently active sprint(s) and their completion percentage
- Recent task and issue activity
- Open issues count and breakdown by severity
- Team workload summary
Archiving a workspace
When a project is complete, you can archive its workspace instead of deleting it. Archived workspaces are hidden from the main navigation but all their data is preserved and searchable.
To archive a workspace:
- Go to Settings inside the workspace.
- Scroll to the Danger Zone section.
- Click Archive Workspace.
You can unarchive a workspace at any time from the Workspaces list. However, deleting a workspace permanently removes all its data.
