Workspace basics

In this article

Learn how Zavimo workspaces function, how to create them, and how to navigate the workspace hierarchy.

A workspace in Zavimo is your team's shared environment where all collaboration, projects, and communication happen. You can think of it as your organization's digital headquarters.

Creating and switching workspaces

To create a new workspace:

  1. Click the workspace icon in the top-left corner.
  2. Select + New workspace.
  3. Name your workspace and start inviting your team.

To switch between workspaces, click the same icon and choose a different one from the list.

Workspace structure

Each workspace can include:

  • Teams - Organize projects and documents under specific departments or initiatives.
  • Folders - Further organize content within teams or at the workspace level.
  • Projects - Contain tasks, custom fields, views, and automations.
  • Docs - Collaborative documents that can live in teams, projects, or the workspace directly.

The sidebar is your workspace navigation hub:

  • Home - View all projects, assigned tasks, private notepad, and people.
  • Inbox - Keep track of all notifications.
  • Chat - Channels, DMs, and team-based discussions.
  • Workspace - Access teams, folders, projects, and standalone docs.
  • Trash - Restore or permanently delete items.
  • Invite - Add members.
