Projects
How do workspaces work?
A workspace is the ownership boundary for projects in HacknPlan.
Two workspace types exist:
- Personal workspace: included with every account, supports unlimited free projects with limited features.
- Studio workspace: available with Studio subscription, includes projects plus managed users and seats.
Workspace owner and admins control project access within that workspace.
Workspace dashboards
Workspace-level dashboards provide cross-project visibility.
- My dashboard: personal view of assigned work, events, and activity.
- Workspace dashboard (Studio): aggregate view across all projects and users.
- User dashboard (Studio): per-user workload and progress view for admins.
Managing projects
In Studio, an early step is usually importing existing personal projects into the workspace:
Administration -> Projects -> Import
Studio also supports creating projects from templates. Optional template components include:
- master data (required)
- users
- boards and milestones
- game design model
- work items
Copied work items are reset to initial workflow stage and do not retain activity/history state.
Users and teams (Studio)
Users must be added to workspace before being added to projects:
Administration -> Users
During user addition, you can optionally assign:
- team
- initial projects
Teams help organize larger organizations. They are useful for batch project assignment, but teams are not permanently linked to projects after assignment.
If a team is removed, members move to Unassigned.
