Teams
A team is a smaller group of people inside your workspace, so the right folks stay together.
Why use it
Teams let you split a big workspace into smaller circles — for example by region, by product, or by client. That way each group sees and works on what belongs to them.
Step by step
Open Teams
Go to your workspace settings and click Teams. You will see a list of the teams you already have (it may be empty at first).
Create a team
Click New team, give it a clear name (like "Sales" or "North Region"), and save. The team now appears in the list.
Add people
People are invited to the workspace, not to a team — the workspace is what shares channels, posts and the calendar. Open Settings → Workspace and send the invite from there. See Invitations.
TIP
Pick names you'll still understand in six months. "Client A" beats "Team 2".
Good to know
- A team always lives inside one workspace — it never spans across workspaces.
- A team has no invite of its own; it groups permissions, and the members list shows its owner.
- Invitations are a workspace feature and work today — see Invitations.

For developers
Teams are managed under /api/v1/teams (list, create, update, delete) with members at /api/v1/teams/:id/members. Every one of those is scoped to the caller's own teams — a foreign id returns 404. POST /api/v1/teams/:id/invite exists and returns 501: team-level invitations are not implemented, and the workspace invitation flow (/workspace/invite) is the one that works. A team record holds user_id (creator), name, owner, a permissions string array, and a free-form data object.
