Manage workspaces in an organization
Who can use this feature
Workspaces are only available on the Enterprise plan.
Only organization admins and workspace admins can manage workspaces.
Workspaces are collections of teams, people, and resources in a Figma organization. They add a layer of structure to help people focus on the work that matters to them.
Only organization admins and workspace admins can manage workspaces.
- Organization admins can create workspaces and assign workspace admins to each workspace.
- Workspace admins have a level of access below organization admins. Workspace admins manage teams, members, and guests in their workspaces. They can't manage any organization-wide resources or settings.
