OpenWork Cloud currently labels shared workers as Shared Workspaces in the web dashboard. Once the workspace is ready, the desktop app opens it through the normal remote connect flow.

​
Deploy the shared workspace

  1. Open your org dashboard and go to Shared Workspace.
  2. Click Add workspace.
  3. Wait until the status becomes Ready.
  4. Click Connect.
From the connection drawer you can choose Open in desktop, Open in web, or copy the Connection URL plus Owner token / Client token.

​
Open it from the desktop app

From the connection drawer, click Connect and copy the Connection URL plus Owner token / Client token. In the desktop app, choose Add workspace -> Connect custom remote, paste the connection URL and token, then click Connect remote.

​
When to use this flow

Use a shared workspace when your team needs a hosted OpenWork runtime, a stable place for long-running tasks or messaging connectors, or one workspace that several people can open from the same org.

Notes

  • This area is currently marked Alpha in the Cloud dashboard.
  • A workspace must be Ready before the desktop app can open it.
  • OpenWork Cloud plan limits apply to hosted workspaces.
  • If you prefer to self-host, the desktop Get Started guide still works with openwork-orchestrator.
