Business value

Today, My workspace is harder to manage than collaborative workspaces due to its limitations on permissions management, app publication, and geo-location. The fact that My workspace is available to every free user increases the risk of non-compliance. Customers, especially those in the healthcare and financial sectors, have concerns about the governance of My workspace. By addressing these concerns directly, we help both unblock and drive adoption.

Feature details

My workspace will continue to be available for all users, and existing functionality will continue to work. My workspaces will be upgraded to the V2 platform, and non-premium features will continue to be fully available to users.

In 2022 release wave 2, service admins will be able to better manage My workspace by:

  • Adding or removing themselves as an admin of My workspace.

Service admins can configure My workspace to meet data residency requirements:

  • They can set a default Premium capacity for all My workspace environments.
  • My workspace owners cannot reassign their workspaces back to shared capacity.
