Workspace

Manages multi-tenant workspaces, teams, members, and organizational structure for the platform

Overview

The Workspace subdomain handles all aspects of workspace and team management in the TaskFlow platform. It provides multi-tenancy capabilities, ensuring complete data isolation between organizations while enabling flexible team structures within each workspace.

Key Capabilities

  • Workspace Management: Create, configure, and manage isolated workspaces for organizations
  • Member Management: Invite, onboard, and manage workspace members with role-based access
  • Team Organization: Create and manage teams within workspaces for better collaboration
  • Access Control: Define roles, permissions, and access policies
  • Billing Integration: Connect workspace to billing and subscription management

Workspace Lifecycle

  1. User creates a new workspace (becomes workspace admin)
  2. Workspace configuration and settings are defined
  3. Members are invited via email
  4. Members accept invitations and join workspace
  5. Teams are created for organizing members
  6. Members are assigned to teams with specific roles

Multi-Tenancy Architecture

Each workspace operates as a completely isolated tenant with:

  • Separate database schema or partition
  • Independent configuration and settings
  • Isolated API keys and integrations
  • Separate analytics and reporting

Access Control Model

Workspace Roles:

  • Admin: Full control over workspace settings, billing, and members
  • Member: Standard workspace access
  • Guest: Limited access to specific projects

Team Roles:

  • Team Lead: Manage team members and settings
  • Team Member: Participate in team activities

Security Considerations

  • All workspace data is encrypted at rest and in transit
  • Row-level security ensures data isolation
  • Audit logging for all member and permission changes
  • SSO integration for enterprise security
