Naming & hierarchy overview
Workspace
The highest level of hierarchy inside liftOS. A Workspace represents an organization as a whole and has Admin and User in permission levels.
Section
Sections are like Notion Team Spaces, they help organize teams, workloads and work categories at the highest level. Section members can have Admin and Member roles. Section members automatically view all Spaces under that section, unless if the access is manually revoked in Space sharing settings.
e.g. Product, Marketing, Finance, UI/UX
Space
Spaces are where work takes place. Spaces are used to work on any project with tools and people.
e.g. Product Sprint, Website Launch, Employee X Onboarding
Folder
Folders are inside of Spaces and help you organize your Apps in the sidebar for you or other team members who are in the same Space.
Apps
Apps like Files, Notes, Todos, and others help you to get work done. Apps can be in multiple places at the same time, Spaces, Home, Notifications, Search and some other components might display a preview or full version of the Apps but Apps are mainly inside of your Spaces and can be added using the App Library.
