Workspaces and Projects FAQs

1 min read

These answers explain how workspaces and projects are organized in Hawzu.


A workspace is the top-level area for projects, users, groups, roles, integrations, shared configuration, and workspace settings.

Hawzu provides a workspace when you sign up. Additional workspaces appear after invitation and acceptance.


A project is the focused testing area for an application, product, service, or delivery area.

Projects contain repository test cases, requirements, releases, executions, test runs, defects, labels, and project settings.


Open a workspace, go to Projects, and select Create Project.

The create project window asks for:

  • Project Name, required.
  • Project Code, exactly 3 characters.
  • Project Description, optional.
  • Optional project role assignments for workspace users.

Learn more in Creating a Project.


Project creation depends on workspace permissions. If Create Project is not available, ask a workspace administrator to review your role.


Yes. A workspace user can have access to one or more projects.

Access can come from direct project roles or inherited group access.


Can I remove project access without deleting a workspace user?

Section titled “Can I remove project access without deleting a workspace user?”

Yes. Direct project access can be removed without deleting the workspace user.

If the user still has inherited access from a group, remove the user from the group or remove the group’s project access.
