A workspace is your team’s complete AI environment in Dify. It contains and isolates everything your organization needs: applications, knowledge bases, team members, model configurations, and integrations.
The Workspace Mental Model
Every resource in Dify belongs to a workspace. When you create an app, it inherits the workspace’s model configurations. When you add team members, they get access to workspace resources based on their role. When you configure models or install integrations, they become available to the entire workspace.
This workspace-first design means your resources are completely isolated from other organizations, team members can only access what they’re permitted to see, and you configure models once for the entire workspace.
Workspace Creation
One workspace is created during installation, with the administrator email and password set during setup.
On Dify Enterprise, you can run multiple workspaces for complete isolation between legal entities, regulatory environments, or client projects. Contact sales to learn more. How Resources Connect
Applications you build can use any model providers configured in the workspace, access all workspace knowledge bases, and use installed integrations. Team members see applications based on their workspace permissions.
Workspace roles determine access across all resources:
- Owners control model providers and workspace settings
- Admins manage team members and configure models and integrations
- Editors build applications and manage knowledge bases
- Members use published applications
