Workspace Configuration

What are Workspaces?

Workspaces in Theneo are distinct areas within the platform designed to manage different projects or teams under one umbrella organization. They serve as separate containers that allow for distinct management of APIs, documentation, and team access. Each workspace can have its own branding, permissions, and configurations, making it an ideal solution for companies with multiple products or teams.

Benefits of Using Workspaces:

1. Team Management:
   • Allocate specific workspaces to different teams within the organization.
   • Set permissions and roles to control access and maintain security.
2. Brand Consistency:
   • Customize branding for each workspace to align with the product or team identity.
   • Manage multiple branding configurations without affecting other workspaces.
3. Organized Documentation:
   • Keep documentation for different products or APIs separate and organized.
   • Provide tailored information relevant to the users of each workspace.
4. Targeted Landing Pages:
   • Design and use different landing pages for each workspace to cater to the specific audience or user base.
   • Enhance user experience by directing them to the relevant workspace right from the start.

When are Multiple Workspaces Relevant?

• Multiple Products: If your company offers a range of products, each with its own set of APIs and documentation, separate workspaces allow for tailored content management without overlap.
• Distinct Branding: Companies that operate different brands under one corporation can use workspaces to manage and present APIs in line with each brand’s guidelines.
• Team-Specific Access: For organizations with several engineering teams, each responsible for different APIs, workspaces provide a way to segment API ownership and control who has access to what.
• Project Phases: During different stages of development, such as testing and production, workspaces can be used to segregate and manage these environments effectively.

Implementing Workspaces:

• Setup: Administrators can create and configure workspaces from the Theneo dashboard.
• Customization: Each workspace can be customized with its own branding and landing pages.
• Access Control: Assign team members to workspaces and define their roles and permissions.
• Content Management: Develop and maintain API documentation that's specific to the needs of each workspace.

In summary, workspaces in Theneo provide a powerful means to segment and manage your API documentation and teams. They offer the flexibility to support multiple products, brands, and teams within a single platform, ensuring that each can operate with its required level of autonomy and specificity
