Workspaces and members
What a workspace holds, who may do what (owner, admin, member, viewer), and how people join.
A workspace is one brain. It has its own pages, sources, members, settings and usage. Nothing crosses from one workspace to another.
Roles
Every member has one role:
| Role | What it can do |
|---|---|
| Owner | Everything an admin can, and changes to who is an owner. A workspace always keeps at least one owner. |
| Admin | Invites and removes members, changes workspace settings (name and picture, models, budgets, limits), and reads the usage and audit views. |
| Member | Reads what its access allows, writes its own notes and sources, and asks questions. |
| Viewer | Reads what its access allows. Cannot write. |
Owners and admins see the audit log (see Access, agents and audit).
Inviting people
Admins invite people by email from Settings → Members. The invitee signs in with that email and joins the workspace with the role you chose. Removing a member signs them out of the workspace.
Switching and picking a workspace
- In the web app, the workspace menu lists every workspace you belong to, and New workspace creates another. You are its owner.
- In the Mac app, the sidebar footer and the Workspace menu switch between every workspace you have signed in to on this Mac.
- When you approve a device with
livingbrain loginor the Mac app, the approval page has a workspace picker, so the token is for the workspace you pick.
Name and picture
Owners and admins set the workspace name and picture under Settings → Workspace. Everyone in the workspace sees them in the top bar and the switcher. Pictures are PNG, JPEG or WebP, cropped to a square in the browser.
Members can set their own name and picture under their profile.
