Workspace Settings

UI-level workspace branding and terminology configuration.

Workspace settings are managed from Admin → Settings by a SUPER_ADMIN. These settings control the name and vocabulary used throughout the UI — no code changes or container restarts are required.

Workspace Name

The workspace name appears in the top-left sidebar chip on every admin page. Set it to your organisation's name, product name, or however you want the platform identified to your users.

Examples: Acme IT, Helpdesk, InfraBase, MyMSP

Workspace Subtitle

A short subtitle appears as muted text below the workspace name in the sidebar. This is typically a descriptor like workspace, documentation, or IT portal.

Tenant Terminology

The word used for "tenant" everywhere in the UI is configurable. This is the term used in:

  • Sidebar navigation labels
  • Button and dialog titles
  • Breadcrumbs and page headings
  • Empty state messages
  • Help text

Presets

Preset Singular Plural Possessive
Company Company Companies Company's
Client Client Clients Client's
Department Department Departments Department's
Tenant Tenant Tenants Tenant's
Organisation Organisation Organisations Organisation's
Site Site Sites Site's
Custom (your term) (your plural) (your possessive)

The Custom option lets you enter any term for singular, plural, and possessive forms independently.

Live Preview

The settings page includes a live preview that updates in real time as you type. The preview shows:

  • The sidebar navigation with your term applied
  • Example dialog titles ("New [Client]", "Edit [Client]")
  • Empty state copy ("No [clients] yet")

This lets you see exactly how the UI will look before saving.

Password Generator Defaults

Workspace-wide defaults for the password generator:

Setting Description
Default mode Words + symbols, Passphrase, or Custom length
Minimum length Minimum characters (for custom length mode)
Word separator Character used between words in passphrase mode

These defaults are used when the generator is opened without user-specific preferences. Users can override them per-session.

What Settings Don't Change

Workspace settings are cosmetic only. The following always remain as-is regardless of configuration:

  • URL paths (/admin/companies/... — not /admin/clients/...)
  • API endpoints (/api/companies/...)
  • Database column names (companyId)
  • Log messages and audit log entries

This means you can change terminology at any time without breaking bookmarks, integrations, or audit history.
