Deploy the shared workspace

1. Open your org dashboard and go to Shared Workspace.
2. Click Add workspace.
3. Wait until the status becomes Ready.
4. Click Connect.

From the connection drawer you can choose Open in desktop, Open in web, or copy the Connection URL plus Owner token / Client token.

Open it from the desktop app

You can open Cloud-hosted workspaces from either place:

1. Add workspace -> Shared workspaces
2. Settings -> Cloud -> Cloud workers

Choose the right org, wait for the workspace to be Ready, then click Connect or Open.

When to use this flow

Use a shared workspace when your team needs a hosted OpenWork runtime, a stable place for long-running tasks or messaging connectors, or one workspace that several people can open from the same org.

Notes

• This area is currently marked Alpha in the Cloud dashboard.
• A workspace must be Ready before the desktop app can open it.
• OpenWork Cloud plan limits apply to hosted workspaces.
• If you prefer to self-host, the desktop Get Started guide still works with openwork-orchestrator.
