Workspace settings
Your workspace is the shared space where your team's contracts live. Workspace settings apply to everyone in it, not just to you.
To open them, go to Settings and click General in the Workspace group.
Owners and admins only
Only the workspace owner and admins see the General page in Settings and can change it. Members and viewers do not see it.
Organisation settings
The Organisation section holds your organisation's basic details:
- Organisation Name: the name shown in the workspace switcher at the top of the screen. Pick a name your team will recognise.
- Slug: a short web-friendly version of the name. You do not set it yourself: Renewly creates it from the organisation name each time you save.
- Industry and Company Size: pick the options that best describe your organisation.
- Logo: click Upload image to add your logo (JPEG, PNG or WEBP), or Remove to take it off.
Changing your organisation name
- Go to Settings → General.
- Edit the Organisation Name field.
- Click Save changes.
The new name applies straight away for everyone in the workspace.
Other sections on the page
- Data residency: shows the region (EU or US) where your workspace's data is stored. See Data residency.
- Data & Storage: shows how much storage and how many contracts your workspace is using. Click Export all data to download a copy of your data.
- Danger Zone: Delete organisation permanently deletes the organisation, all its contracts and everyone's access to it. Only the owner can do this, and it cannot be undone.
Departments
In Settings → Departments, owners and admins can group members into departments, such as Finance or IT, and assign contracts to them. The workspace owner can also switch on department-scoped visibility, so members and viewers only see their own departments' contracts. See Departments for the full guide.
How settings affect team members
- Everyone sees the same organisation name.
- Changes apply straight away for everyone in the workspace.
- Personal settings stay personal. Each person controls their own profile, notification choices and sign-in security. See Account settings.
To invite people, change roles or manage invitations, see Teams.
Best practices
- Set up departments early. Create departments and add members before you invite your wider team, so contracts land in the right place from the start.
- Tell your team about changes. Workspace changes affect everyone, so let people know when you make one.
