Workspaces and projects
A workspace brings together your team and its projects. Membership and roles belong to the workspace; your role applies to its projects. Workspace settings include members and integrations such as Slack and model providers. A project groups an application’s traces, detectors, evaluations, datasets, dashboards, and alerts. Choose the workspace and project you want to work in before opening a product page. Project API keys are scoped to one project. Create a key in the project’s settings and use it with the SDK for the application that should send data to that project. A key for one project does not grant access to another project’s data. Keep keys secret.Environments
An environment labels traffic within a project, for exampleproduction or staging. It is a field on trace data, rather than a separate workspace, project, or permission boundary. Use environment filters to focus on one deployment.
The deployment label is carried by the traceroot.environment span attribute. With the TypeScript SDK, set TRACEROOT_ENVIRONMENT to label the deployment.
Invite a teammate
- As a workspace ADMIN, open the workspace’s Settings and select Members.
- Click Invite member, enter the teammate’s email address, and choose VIEWER, MEMBER, or ADMIN.
- Send the invitation. The teammate receives an email linking to the invite page.
- The teammate opens the link and signs in with the invited email address to accept it.
Roles
Roles are ordered VIEWER, MEMBER, ADMIN. A higher role includes the permissions of the roles below it. The table describes signed-in workspace members; project API keys use their own credential scope.
If an API or CLI write returns a permission error, check the role on the workspace containing the project. Having MEMBER access in one workspace does not make you an ADMIN in another. Ask a workspace admin to perform the action or update your role.
Choose your next workflow
- Tracing: send your first trace.
- Evaluations: test an agent against a dataset.
- Dashboards: explore project metrics.
- Alerts: monitor a metric threshold.
