Set up separate Dev, Staging and Prod workspaces

Updated Aug 12, 2026

Change an app without worrying that your team sees a half-finished form. With separate workspaces, you build and test in one place while everyone else keeps working undisturbed in another.

By default an account owns one workspace. On a plan with multiple workspaces enabled, the same owner can run several workspaces under one login. Plans that include multiple workspaces say so on the plan picker and pricing page.

Why run more than one workspace?

A common setup is three workspaces that mirror how a change travels from idea to everyday use:

WorkspaceWhat it's forWho works there
DevBuild new apps and try changes to existing onesYou and other builders
StagingCheck a finished change before your team sees itReviewers and testers
ProdThe live apps your team uses every dayEveryone

Because new work happens in Dev and Staging, your team in Prod barely notices. An expense-claim form you are redesigning in Dev never interrupts the people filing claims in Prod.

Create another workspace

  • On the sign-up page, register with your existing email and password. Sheetward recognises you and adds the new workspace to the same login.
  • Enter a name for the new workspace — for example "Acme Dev".
  • Choose a plan that supports multiple workspaces (it's badged on the plan picker).
  • The new workspace is created. Use the workspace switcher to move between your workspaces.

Switch between workspaces

  • Use the workspace switcher in the app to move between the workspaces you belong to.

Good to know

  • Workspace names are unique across Sheetward — if a name is taken, you'll be asked to pick another.
  • Need to move an app between your workspaces — say, promote it from Dev to Prod? See Copy an app to another workspace.
