Actions on Workspace

Workspace configuration lives under Settings in the workspace sidebar, and every task on this page starts there. A workspace that belongs to an organization shows Usage where a standalone workspace shows Billing, because the organization pays.

Members, teams and integrations are not in Settings. Each has its own row in the workspace sidebar: Invite Members, Teams and Integrations.

Rename workspace

  1. In the workspace sidebar, click Settings.
  2. Open General.
  3. Change the Name field. To change the workspace icon, click the icon next to the field.

NocoDB saves the name for you, so there is nothing to confirm. If you clear the field, NocoDB saves nothing and restores the previous name.

Renaming a workspace under Appearance

Require two-factor authentication

Workspace owners can make two-factor authentication (2FA) necessary for the full workspace. When this setting is on, all workspace members must set up 2FA on their account before they can open this workspace.

Only the workspace owner can change this setting. It is available on NocoDB Cloud (Enterprise plan) and licensed self-hosted deployments (Scale plan and above).

To require 2FA for a workspace:

  1. In the workspace sidebar, click Settings.
  2. Open Enable 2FA, under Admin.
  3. Turn on Require two-factor authentication. A dialog opens.
  4. Confirm in the dialog.

Require two-factor authentication

If you don't have 2FA set up on your own account, the confirmation dialog warns that you will be locked out of the workspace until you set it up. Configure 2FA on your account first to avoid losing access.

Confirm require two-factor authentication

When the setting is on:

MemberResult
Existing members without 2FANocoDB asks them to set up 2FA the next time they try to open the workspace.
New inviteesThey must complete the 2FA setup before they can open the workspace.
Members who already have 2FA on their accountNo change.
Members who sign in through SSO (for example, Google OAuth, SAML, OIDC)The requirement does not apply to them. They open the workspace as usual, because the SSO provider manages their authentication security.

To stop the requirement, turn off the setting. Some members turned on 2FA only for this policy. They can keep 2FA or remove it in their own Account Settings → Security.

To learn how members set up 2FA on their account, refer to Two-Factor Authentication.

Delete workspace

This action is irreversible. This will permanently remove the workspace and all its contents.
Only the workspace owner can delete a workspace.

  2. Open Danger Zone, under Admin.
  3. Click Delete Workspace. A dialog opens.
  4. To confirm, enter the workspace name in the dialog.

Workspaces with an active subscription

You cannot delete a workspace that has an active paid subscription. NocoDB asks you to cancel the subscription first. It also gives a link directly to Billing.

Cancel subscription before deleting workspace

Cancel the subscription in Billing. Then delete the workspace.

Leave workspace

If you do not need access to a workspace, you can leave it. After you leave, you cannot open the workspace until someone invites you again.

  1. In the workspace sidebar, click Settings.
  2. Open Danger Zone, under Admin.
  3. Click Leave Workspace.

Find workspace ID

Each workspace has a unique ID. You can find it in three places:

  • Open the workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar. The active workspace card shows WORKSPACE ID. Click the ID to copy it.
  • Go to Settings → General. The ID shows with the name and icon. Click the ID to copy it.
  • When you open a workspace, read the ID in the URL.

Example:

https://app.nocodb.com/w7kjha1w/...

In this example, the workspace ID is w7kjha1w.
