Overview
A workspace is the top-level organizational unit in Alana Shopping B2B. Every resource — brands, catalogs, products, members, and billing — belongs to exactly one workspace. Workspaces provide complete data isolation. Row-level security policies ensure that a member of Workspace A can never access data from Workspace B, even at the database level.Workspace properties
Workspace lifecycle
1
Creation
A workspace is created during the post-auth setup flow. The creating user becomes the owner.
2
Onboarding
The onboarding wizard guides the owner through industry selection, brand creation, and optionally loading sample data.
3
Active use
Members are invited, brands and catalogs are created, and the workspace operates normally.
4
Export / Deletion
Owners can export all workspace data (GDPR-compliant) or permanently delete the workspace.
Security settings
Each workspace has configurable security policies:- Session timeout — automatic logout after inactivity
- 2FA enforcement — require two-factor authentication for all members
- IP allowlisting — restrict API access to specific IP ranges
- Force logout — immediately end all active sessions workspace-wide
Security settings can only be modified by the workspace owner or admin.
