Workspaces

Workspaces let you organize your API projects into isolated environments. Each workspace has its own collections, environments, global variables, vault secrets, mock servers, workflows, and scheduled jobs.

Workspace Switcher

The workspace switcher is in the center of the title bar. Click it to:

• Search and switch between workspaces
• Create a new workspace
• Import a workspace from a file

Creating a Workspace

1. Click the workspace name in the title bar
2. Click Create
3. Type a name and press Enter

New workspaces start empty with a unique color from the palette. You can change the color in workspace settings — the color appears as a small dot next to the workspace name in the switcher and in the title bar.

Workspace Settings

Double-click the workspace name (or use ... > Settings) to open the workspace tab:

Overview

• Name, description, color
• Stats dashboard (collections, requests, environments, globals, vault, mock servers, workflows, jobs)
• Export workspace

Request Settings

Override global defaults for this workspace:

Setting	Description
HTTP Timeout	Request timeout for all requests
SSL Verification	Enable/disable SSL certificate checks
Follow Redirects	Auto-follow HTTP redirects
Source Check Interval	How often to check linked source files

Priority: Per-request > Workspace > Global (Settings tab)

Proxy

Configure a workspace-specific proxy server (protocol, host, port, auth).

Context Menu

Right-click any workspace in the switcher dropdown to access:

Action	Description
Open Settings	Open the workspace settings tab
Rename	Rename inline
Duplicate	Create a copy with all collections and data
Export	Save as .rostyman-workspace file
Delete	Move to Trash (recoverable)

Default Workspace

"My Workspace" is the default workspace and cannot be renamed or deleted. When upgrading from an older version, all existing data is automatically placed in this workspace.

Export & Import

• Export: ... menu > Export Workspace (saves .rostyman-workspace file with everything)
• Import: Upload icon in the workspace switcher (creates a new workspace)

Deleting

Deleted workspaces go to Trash where they can be restored. Deleting the active workspace auto-switches to the default.
