Leave a workspace

Leaving a workspace allows a member to remove themselves from a workspace they no longer want or need access to. This is useful when someone changes roles, leaves a team, or should no longer be part of that workspace.

Who can leave a workspace

Typically, non-owner members can leave a workspace. Owners usually cannot leave directly without first transferring ownership or handling the workspace appropriately.

Why leave-workspace matters

This feature helps keep workspace membership accurate without requiring someone else to remove the user manually every time. It is useful when:

  • a manager is no longer involved
  • a contractor finishes work
  • a member joined the wrong workspace
  • someone wants to clean up their access

What happens after leaving

After leaving a workspace:

  • the member loses access
  • they are no longer an active member
  • the team list may update to remove or disable them
  • another workspace may become their active selection if applicable

When to use leave-workspace instead of removal

Leave-workspace is best when:

  • the user is choosing to leave on their own
  • there is no dispute about access
  • the person is simply done with the workspace

Removal is better when:

  • leadership needs to revoke access
  • the user should not remain active
  • an admin or owner is managing the change directly

💡Best practices

  • leave workspaces you no longer need
  • avoid staying active in irrelevant workspaces
  • make sure important projects or deals are reassigned before leaving if needed
