Switch or create a workspace
Select an existing membership, request to join another workspace, or start a separate workspace without replacing the current one.

What this is for
The workspace switcher lists the workspaces you belong to and your role in each. Switching changes where you work, not who you are signed in as. A workspace's content, connections, role and seat access can differ from another's.
Before you start
Save any work using the current page's own controls before leaving it. Make sure the workspace name you want is in your membership list; otherwise request to join it or accept an invitation.
Switch to an existing workspace
- On desktop, open Switch workspace in the sidebar. On a phone, choose More, then the workspace switcher at the bottom of the panel.
- Review the listed names and roles. A check identifies Current workspace. Setting up means that workspace has not finished opening.
- Choose the other workspace's name. The app switches its current workspace. If your membership still needs setup or a seat, the relevant flow explains what to complete.
- Check the workspace name and your role before editing or publishing. The small identity line can also show your seat's plan here.
Create a separate workspace
- Open the switcher and choose Create a workspace, or Create an office in Nadlanite.
- The onboarding wizard opens for a new workspace. The existing workspace remains as it is; a new name and setup are required.
- Complete onboarding. The workspace step creates the new workspace; merely opening the new-setup link does not create it.
To join an existing team instead, choose Join a workspace and follow Join requests. Do not create a duplicate workspace to access someone else's data.
Discarding an unfinished workspace
Only an owner may see Discard for a workspace that was never opened and has not completed their onboarding there. The confirmation warns that discarding removes it and everything prepared in it and cannot be undone. A workspace with a seat or bill is not eligible for this shortcut. Cancel if you are unsure; this is not a way to archive an active office or cancel its subscription.
If something goes wrong
| Symptom | Next step |
|---|---|
| The workspace is not listed | Use its invitation or request to join; knowing its name alone does not grant membership. |
| The wrong data appears | Check the selected workspace before making changes. |
| Setting up appears | Open that workspace and complete its remaining setup. |
| Discard is refused | Its state may have changed or it is no longer eligible. Do not retry it as a subscription cancellation. |
| A discarded workspace needs cleanup | If the dialog offers Finish disconnecting, use that action; the workspace has already been discarded. |
