📖Reference: Workspaces

Introduction

A workspace in Motion is the top-level container for your account. It defines who you collaborate with, what projects and tasks are shared, and how calendars, docs, and settings apply across your team. Workspaces also control billing, roles, and permissions, making them the foundation for how Motion organizes both people and work.

At a Glance

• Top-level container → Everything in Motion — projects, tasks, docs, calendars — lives inside a workspace.

• Membership & roles → Workspaces define who belongs to the team and what each person can do (Owner, Admin, Member, Guest).

• Permissions → Roles govern who can create, edit, invite, or view across projects and docs.

• Calendars → Workspace connections determine which external calendars feed into Motion.

• Cross-workspace separation → Projects, tasks, and docs do not cross workspaces unless explicitly shared.

• Billing → Subscription plans and usage apply at the workspace level.

• Limitations → Workspaces cannot be merged, and guests have restricted access to shared resources.

Conclusion

Workspaces in Motion are the top-level containers that define how people, projects, and resources come together. They establish clear boundaries for collaboration, permissions, calendars, and billing. Each workspace is independent — with its own settings, members, and subscription plan — ensuring teams and organizations stay organized and secure.

Key Takeaway

A workspace is your team’s home base in Motion: it sets the rules for who can collaborate, what resources are shared, and how the account is billed.
