General settings
Workspace name and URL handle
You can change the name and URL in the Workspace Settings tab:
- Workspace name - the name displayed on the workspace list and on the browser tab. Changing the name does not change the workspace URL.
- Workspace URL handle - defines the address at which the workspace is available:
https://app.buddy.works/$WORKSPACE_URL_HANDLE. - The URL handle can use lowercase letters, numbers, and
-(dash) and_(footer) characters. Other special characters are not allowed. The handle must start and end with a letter or a number. - You can change the color of the Buddy logo for easier identification on the workspace list.
URL handle for Buddy-hosted Git projects
If you host your projects on Buddy, keep in mind that updating the workspace URL changes the URL of all Git projects. If you do need to change the handle, remember to update the project URL in your local folders for all applicable repositories by running the following command:
bashgit remote set-url origin https://app.buddy.works/:workspace/:project$
