How to Create a Workspace in Vaiz
Creating a workspace in Vaiz is the first step to start collaborating with your team. A workspace helps you organize your projects, add members, and manage access in one centralized space.
Follow the steps below to set up your workspace in just a few minutes.
Step 1: Accessing the Workspace Creation Page
After logging into Vaiz, look at the left-hand sidebar. At the top of the sidebar, you’ll see a dropdown with the name of your current workspace (or a prompt to create one if none exists).
- Click on the workspace name or the dropdown arrow.
- In the dropdown menu, select
Create new space.

Step 2: Starting a New Workspace
In the window that appears, enter the name of your workspace (e.g., Marketing Team, Client Project Alpha).
Click Create space once you're ready to proceed.

Then click Switch to space to open your new space and start customizing it.

Step 3: Inviting Team Members
To invite other members to your space, open the dropdown menu at the top of the sidebar again and select Team.

In the window that appears, at the top you’ll see two options: Members and Groups.

Option 1: Adding Members
- Click
Membersif you want to invite individual users. - In the top-right corner of the opened window, click the
Invitebutton.

- Enter the email addresses of the members you want to add, then click
Add members.

Option 2: Adding Groups
- At the top of the page, switch to the
Groupstab. - If no groups have been created yet, you will see a
Create Groupbutton in the center of the screen — click it.

- In the window that appears, enter the group name and an optional short description. Then click
Create Group.

- Select the access role you need for the group and click
Continue.

- Add the email addresses of the members you want to include, then click
Add Members.

Note: you can invite multiple members at once, or skip this step and invite people later from the workspace settings.
After you add members, you’ll see the Specify access rights screen. For each project listed, open the Role dropdown and choose a permission level:
- Owner — unrestricted access to the group’s content and settings.
- Manager — can add and remove members within the group (except Owners).
- Member — can interact with content but cannot change group membership.
- Guest — view-only access; cannot make changes.
- No Access — no access within the group.
The selected role applies to all members of this group. When you’re done, click Continue.

If you need to make any changes to the group:
- Click
Manage new Group, or - Return to it later from your workspace settings.
If everything looks correct, click Dismiss to finish.
Step 4: Workspace Created
Once your workspace is created, you will be automatically redirected to the workspace dashboard.
From here, you can:
- Start creating documents and tasks.
- Set up folders and projects.
- Configure permissions and settings.

Step 5: Switching Between Workspaces
If you have more than one workspace, switching between them is simple:
- Click the workspace name in the top-left corner.
- Select the workspace you want to switch to from the dropdown list.

Additional Notes
- You can create as many workspaces as you need — useful for separating clients, departments, or internal vs external projects.
- Only workspace admins can edit workspace settings and manage members.
- Each workspace has its own documents, folders, and permissions.
