# How to Create a Workspace and Add Users to it

## In order to use SciNote, every user must be a part of at least one Workspace (formerly Teams in SciNote). If not, their user dashboard will be greyed out and they will need to first gain Workspace access to view projects in the ELN.

- Workspaces can only be created by an **Organization administrator**.
- **Workspaces cannot be deleted**, however, the Workspace *Owners* can **rename** them.
- **Organization Administrators can add themselves** to a Workspace as a Workspace Owner, if needed.

### **Creating new Workspaces**

**To create a team** follow the steps below:

1. Navigate to **Settings** (gear icon on top right)
2. **Click Workspaces**
3. **Click** on the + **New workspace** button.
4. Type the **Workspace's name** and if you would like, a **description.**
5. **Click Create.**

### Adding Users to Workspaces

After you have created your workspace, you can invite other users to be a part of it. **To invite additional users to your workspace**:

1. **Click** on **+** **Add workspace members**
2. Typetheir name if they are already a member of the organization. Input their email if they are not yet a member of your organization.  
   **NOTE:** You must **press space** or **enter** after typing their email. A grey box will populate around the email and the Invite members button will illuminate.
3. **Click** **Invite Members**.
4. Choose their role **(Owner,  User, or Viewer)**
