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:
git remote set-url origin https://app.buddy.works/:domain/:project
$
Warning
If you are using our API, you also need to update the domain there or it won't work.
Workspace ownership
Success
The workspace owner has all rights of an administrator with exclusive access to the workspace Billing tab.
To transfer workspace ownership to another user, use the option at the bottom of the workspace settings:
Image loading...Ownership transfer location
Select the desired owner from the dropdown menu to send them the confirmation email. As soon as the user confirms, they will become the new owner of the workspace.
Image loading...User selection dropdown
Hint
The dropdown list shows active users only, i.e. those who accepted the invitation to that workspace.
Warning
If the workspace is on a paid plan, make sure that the new owner adds a payment method as soon as possible, as the previous owner will no longer be charged (payments are tied to user ID's).
