Team workspace

One login passed around is what ties accounts to each other and to one machine. A workspace keeps the work in one place while each person arrives as themselves and leaves a separate trail.

A team workspace is one paid account that several people sign into separately, each with a seat and a role.

What a workspace holds

Everything bought sits under one owner: the profile allowance, the machine seats, the shared proxy library and the groups.

A colleague joins that space instead of receiving a copy of it. Access ends in one step, on the day it should.

How a seat is taken

1
The person registers first
An invite is written to an address that already has an account, because owning an address is not something a server can prove.
2
The owner writes the invite
It names that one address, carries a code, expires after a week and can be withdrawn before anyone uses it.
3
The seat is counted twice
Once when the invite is written and again when it is accepted, under a hold on the owner's record so two people cannot take one seat.

What a colleague can reach

A role says what a person may change. Groups say which profiles they see at all.

Profiles opened to them
Sharing hands over the profile itself, not the password of the account inside it, and each person it is shared with has a level: can start, can edit or full access.
Groups opened to them
An empty choice means no narrowing, and the window says so: "Nothing picked: this person sees every group." One group chosen means that group and nothing else, including profiles kept outside any group.
The shared proxy library
Anyone can work through an address already set on a profile. Editing the library, pressing Change IP or pulling the whole library to a second machine belongs to a manager.

Your own workspace and new ones

Every account has its own workspace, and a person can belong to other people's ones as well. A new workspace is created in the app with the New workspace button at the bottom of the list in the corner menu, and in the dashboard with the same button under the title: the name is up to 50 characters, and workspaces do not share data.

A person has one free workspace: a new one can be created when their workspaces are on a paid plan, and each workspace has its own plan. The owner renames it with the Rename button on the Account screen of the app or under the dashboard title.

One profile in one window

A profile open on one machine is held there, and the second machine is told who has it instead of opening a second window.

That hold is what stops two colleagues from working one account from two places in the same hour.

When someone leaves

Being removed and walking out run the same path, so both end with the space in the same state.

Access closes with the seat
Their access to colleagues' profiles closes, and so do the shares on the profiles that leave with them. Profiles that stay with the owner keep the colleagues already working them.
The seat comes back
Machines they registered give their seats back, and an invite still waiting on their address is put out.
Paid work stays paid for
Profiles made inside the workspace stay with the owner, and what the person brought in leaves with them.
The trail stays
Their rows remain in the owner's history, and that history is read exactly then.

Often confused with

A shared login
One address and one password for everyone leaves no way to tell two people apart and no way to take access from one of them.
A plan named for teams
Seats are a line on the paid plans rather than a plan of their own, and the owner occupies one of them.
A group
A group narrows what a person sees inside the space. The space is the thing they are inside of.

What this does not do

It does not sign a company in through one directory. Each person registers themselves first, and the invite is written to that address.
It does not hand the proxy library to everyone on a second machine. Pulling the whole library with its passwords needs a manager or higher.
It does not wipe a colleague's machine. Taking a profile back removes it from their app and leaves the cookies already written to their disk.
It does not make a platform allow shared work. Many of them forbid one account being worked by several people, and nothing here changes their rules.

Check it

Every line above comes from a file you can open.

Seats are counted when an invite is written and again when it is accepted: apps/server/src/team/team.service.ts · apps/server/test/team-money-seats.js
An opened group narrows the list and the direct open alike: apps/server/test/group-access.js
One window holds a profile and the second is told who has it: apps/server/test/profile-lock.js
Seats belong to the paid plans and the owner takes one of them: packages/shared/src/index.js
A new workspace: one free per person, the creator owns it, the workspace service address never signs in: apps/server/test/новое-пространство.js
New workspace at the bottom of the corner menu opens it in its own shelf, Rename for the owner: apps/desktop/test/пространства-в-программе-живьём.js

Questions

Does a teammate need their own subscription?: No. The space belongs to the owner, and profiles made inside it count against the owner's allowance.
Can two people open one profile at once?: No. The second machine is told who holds it and can take it over on purpose, which is different from taking it by accident.
Is the invite code enough on its own?: No. It is written to one address that already has an account, it expires, and it can be withdrawn while it is still unused.
Can I keep a contractor on one client?: Yes. Put that client's profiles in a group and open only that group; the rule is read when profiles are listed and again when one is opened by identifier.
What happens to the work after someone goes?: Profiles the workspace paid for stay with the owner, and the record of what was done stays readable to the owner.
