Workspace

A workspace is the top organizing container in a tool that gathers projects, data and team members under one roof with shared access.

A workspace is more a concept of structure and access than a metric: it determines who sees which data and how work stays separated. Its importance lies in two things: the data boundary, which ensures one team's projects do not mix with another's; and the access model, which defines roles and permissions within that boundary. A workspace should not be equated with a billing account; sometimes one account has several workspaces and sometimes the reverse, and that mapping affects reporting. For an analyst, the practical point is that almost every metric makes sense within one workspace's boundary; summing across workspaces is only correct via deliberate aggregation, because each workspace can have its own independent definitions and data.
