Workspaces
- One workspace is

- Where to manage
- Admin → Integrations, Admin → License
A workspace is your company’s home in DevGlimpse. It holds the connected sources, the members, the settings and all the data. Everything in a workspace is separate from every other workspace.
What a workspace contains
- Connected sources. One or more GitHub organizations, plus ticket, incident, CI and AI sources.
- Members with a role each. See Roles.
- Settings and groups. Visibility rules, custom groups, alerts and reports.
- A license. Every new workspace starts on the Free plan. See License.
How a workspace is created
A workspace is created when an organization owner installs the DevGlimpse GitHub App on a GitHub organization. DevGlimpse checks with GitHub that the App is installed and that you are an active admin of that organization. Follow the Quickstart.
Connect more organizations or sources
One company often has several GitHub organizations. You can attach them all to the same workspace so numbers are not split.
- Go to Admin → Integrations. This page lists each connected organization with its status, Repositories synced option and backfill state.
- Select Add GitHub integration.
- Select Install GitHub App, choose the other organization on GitHub and confirm. GitHub returns you to DevGlimpse, and the 90-day backfill for that organization starts.
You must be an owner of the new organization. Only an org admin can connect organizations or change what is synced.
Other sources work the same way at workspace level. Add Ticket Source on the same page connects Linear, Jira Cloud and Asana. DevGlimpse also supports GitLab, Bitbucket Cloud and incident tools, but their connect screens are not in the app yet. See Integrations.
A person can sign in to several workspaces. Switch with the workspace menu at the top of the left navigation. See Join a workspace.
Integration status
Each connected organization shows one of these statuses:
- Active. Syncing normally.
- Suspended. The App was uninstalled from this organization. Installing it again reactivates it.
- Disconnected. The organization is no longer connected.
Read-only mode and the 30-day deletion window
A workspace goes read-only when you uninstall the GitHub App from every connected organization. A license or Team trial ending does not do this: the workspace moves to the Free plan and nothing is deleted. Uninstalling does not delete anything at once.
- Read-only. Syncing and configuration changes stop. All data stays readable and exportable. A banner explains why, and shows the deletion date. Org admins see Export or restore. Everyone else is told to ask their workspace admin.
- Deletion. After 30 days, DevGlimpse permanently deletes all the workspace’s data.
- Restore. Reinstalling the App before the deletion date restores normal operation and cancels the deletion.
You can also delete a workspace immediately. See Data and deletion.
Trial banners
During a Team trial, the banner shows the days left and turns into a warning in the last 3 days. A paid license shows a notice in the 3 days before it expires. In both cases the workspace then moves to the Free plan and nothing is deleted.
