Organization & Workspace Structure
Understanding how your workspace is structured makes it easier to set up your team, control access, and keep data organized. Here is how the pieces relate.
#Key concepts
| Concept | What it means |
|---|---|
| Workspace | The container for your entire business in DevSphere OS. |
| Organization | Your business identity — name, branding, and account settings. |
| Users | The individual people on your team. |
| Roles | A user's job type, which sets a sensible default level of access. |
| Permissions | The specific things a user can see and do. |
| Departments | Business areas that users work in. |
| Modules | The tools within each department. |
| Data isolation | Your workspace's data is kept separate from other organizations'. |
#Roles and permissions
Roles give each person a sensible starting level of access, and permissions let you fine-tune exactly what they can see and do. This keeps sensitive areas — like finance or admin settings — limited to the right people, while letting everyone get to the work they need.
Least-privilege by default
Give people access to what their role needs, and expand from there. AI agents and automations always operate within the permissions of the context they run in — they never exceed a user's access.
#Admin responsibilities
- Setting up the organization and branding.
- Inviting users and assigning roles and permissions.
- Enabling the departments and modules the business needs.
- Managing integrations and account settings.
#Data isolation
Your workspace's data belongs to your organization and is kept separate from other organizations. Access within your workspace is governed by the roles and permissions you set.
