Pumble Workspace

isidora.komaromi@cake.com

A Pumble workspace is a place where all communication happens. It’s a place where your collaboration shines. Workspace is a virtual space made up of channels, where you can communicate with your team members in channels, direct messages or audio/video calls. When you first create Pumble account, you automatically get a workspace or join an existing workspace. A workspace contains all the channels, teams, individual users, and settings, and is a place where all communication happens.

A workspace is the highest level unit on Pumble. You can create or join multiple workspaces with one email address. These workspaces are separate entities, each with their own unique set of users, channels, and settings applied, and cannot be accessed by people who are not part of the workspace. 

By creating a workspace, you automatically become the owner of that workspace.
