Workspaces & Teams

Workspaces are isolated environments for separate brands, clients, or projects. Each workspace has its own contacts, campaigns, API keys, and email providers. Invite team members and assign roles to control who can do what.

What Is a Workspace?

A workspace is a fully isolated container for one brand or client. Everything lives inside a workspace: contacts, lists, campaigns, templates, automations, forms, API keys, and email provider connections. There is no data bleed between workspaces — a contact in Workspace A is invisible to Workspace B.

Common use cases for multiple workspaces:

  • Agencies: one workspace per client. Each client has its own sending domain, contacts, and campaigns.
  • Multi-brand companies: separate workspaces for different product lines or regional brands.
  • Testing: a dedicated staging workspace to test new automations or templates without affecting production.

Each workspace has its own:

  • Sending domains and email provider credentials
  • Contact database, lists, segments, and custom fields
  • Campaign history and analytics
  • API keys (bearer tokens scoped to the workspace)
  • Team members and role assignments
  • Subscription forms and hosted landing pages

Creating a Workspace

To create a new workspace, click the workspace switcher in the top-left corner of the dashboard and select New Workspace.

  1. Workspace name: a human-readable name shown in the dashboard and in emails sent on behalf of this workspace (e.g., Acme Corp, Smith Consulting).
  2. Workspace slug: a URL-safe identifier auto-generated from the name (e.g., acme-corp). Used in API paths and your hosted form URLs. Can be changed once.
  3. Timezone: the default timezone for scheduling campaigns. Individual contacts can have their own timezone for timezone-optimized delivery.

After creation, the workspace is empty. You'll be prompted to connect an email provider and verify a sending domain before you can send campaigns.

Workspace limits by plan

The number of workspaces you can create depends on your plan. See the Workspace Limits section below.

Team Members

You can invite colleagues and clients to a workspace. Each invitation is workspace-scoped — someone can be an Admin in one workspace and a Viewer in another.

Inviting via email

  1. Go to Workspace Settings → Team.
  2. Click Invite Member.
  3. Enter the person's email address and select their role.
  4. Click Send Invite. An invitation email is sent immediately.

The invitee receives an email with a link to accept. If they don't have an EmailSendX account yet, they'll be prompted to create one (free). Accepting the invite adds them to your workspace.

Invite link

For bulk invites or onboarding, generate a shareable invite link in Workspace Settings → Team → Invite Link. The link is tied to a specific role and expires after 7 days. You can revoke and regenerate it at any time.

Managing pending invites

Under Workspace Settings → Team → Pending Invites, you can see all outstanding invitations and cancel any that haven't been accepted. Cancelled invites become invalid immediately.

Roles & Permissions

EmailSendX has five built-in roles. Assign the least-permissive role that covers a person's needs.

RoleWhat they can do
AdminFull access to everything including workspace settings, billing info, API key management, email provider credentials, and team management. Can delete the workspace.
EditorCreate, edit, and send campaigns; manage contacts, lists, and segments; build automations and forms; create templates. Cannot access workspace settings, API keys, or billing.
MemberCreate and edit campaigns and templates in draft; cannot publish, schedule, or send campaigns. Can view contacts and analytics. Suitable for junior team members or copywriters.
ViewerRead-only access to campaigns, analytics, contacts, and automations. Cannot create or modify anything. Suitable for stakeholders who need visibility without editing access.
Client ViewHighly restricted read-only role for white-label client portals. Sees only campaign stats (opens, clicks, unsubscribes) and contact counts. Cannot see settings, API keys, provider credentials, or EmailSendX branding.

Client View role for white-label

The Client View role is designed for sharing a branded reporting portal with your clients. Combined with a custom domain and your own logo, it gives clients a seamless view of their email performance without exposing your tooling. See White-label Setup for the full guide.

Billing & Plans

Billing is account-level, not per-workspace. Your plan applies to your entire EmailSendX account. All workspaces under your account share the contact and send limits defined by your plan.

Plans:

  • Hobby — Free. 1 workspace, 500 contacts, 3,000 sends/month.
  • Starter — Up to 3 workspaces, 5,000 contacts, 15,000 sends/month.
  • Pro — Up to 10 workspaces, 25,000 contacts, 100,000 sends/month. Public API access and outgoing webhooks.
  • Business — Up to 25 workspaces, 100,000 contacts, 500,000 sends/month. Custom sending domain, white-label, and priority support.
  • Custom plan — Need higher limits, an SLA, or dedicated infrastructure? Contact us and we'll scope a tailored plan.

CRM Add-on

Each workspace can optionally add the CRM add-on ($19/workspace/month) which unlocks extended contact properties, deal pipeline tracking, and activity timelines per contact. This is billed in addition to your base plan.

Manage your plan and billing in Account Settings → Billing. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time. Downgrades take effect at the end of your current billing period.
