3. Workshop: folders

Workshop works like a file explorer. On the left: My Workshop (yours alone), then Shared folders, Schedules, Recently deleted, New shared folder. One click opens an item. ⋯, a right click or a long press (phone) opens its menu. Select acts on several items; on a computer, drag and drop moves them.

3.1 Kinds of folders

Kind Who Data
My Workshop you your personal data
Shared folder its members (its owner is the "Master baker") data shared by the members
Sub-folder same people as the folder it's in same data: it only tidies
Folder with separate data (lock icon) only the people you choose its own data, kept apart

Moving an item never moves its data. A table or a flow can't leave its data area: "Its data belongs to another folder: it can't move there."

3.2 Shared folders

  • New shared folder (left column) → a name → Create.
  • Its ⋯ (next to its name): Members and invite link, Storage, Runners, Data and activity, Rename, Leave, Delete.
  • Members and invite link: Copy link (anyone with the link can join), New link (the old one stops working), Turn off / Turn on invitations, Remove a member.
  • Joining: open the invite link → Join group.

3.3 Folders with separate data

Only the owner of the shared folder creates them: New folder → Keep this folder's data separate. Then its ⋯ → Manage access: Everyone in (No access, Can view, Can edit) and people one by one (Can view, Can edit, Can manage). People without access don't see the folder.

3.4 Adding things

Add (top right of a folder): New tool (My Workshop) or Shortcut to one of my tools… (shared folders), Import a file (table) (a CSV becomes a table), New flow. New folder creates a sub-folder.

3.5 Recently deleted

Deleting a folder sends it to Recently deleted for 30 days, with everything inside. Restore puts it back. After 30 days: shortcuts leave the shared folder (the tools themselves are never deleted), tables and flows inside are deleted. Deleting a folder that contains tables or flows needs the right to manage its data.

3.6 Data and activity

⋯ → Data and activity: the data saved by tools in this data area (filter by key, Export JSON, Export CSV) and the activity log.
