This guide explains how to create and manage multiple workspaces in PhantomBuster, how to switch between them, and how workspace structure supports collaboration. Each workspace is independent, letting you separate clients, teams, or use cases while maintaining full control over automation, users, and billing.
All users start with a primary default workspace. You can add more workspaces to manage different teams, clients, or campaigns, each with its own setup, billing, and members.
What is a workspace
A workspace is your main environment for launching automations (Phantoms and Workflows), managing connected accounts, and collaborating with teammates.
Each workspace is fully independent, with its own:
- Automations.
- Connected accounts and session cookies.
- Team members and user roles.
- Usage limits, billing, and subscription.
Workspaces are account-specific. Each one requires its own subscription plan to run automations.
Workspaces are collaborative by default
Previously, PhantomBuster had personal and shared workspaces. That’s no longer the case.
Now, every workspace supports collaboration:
-
When you create an account, your first (primary) workspace is ready to use and share.
-
You can invite teammates right away.
-
You can create additional workspaces anytime to separate teams or projects.
This simplified model helps you organize automations by use case or client while staying in control of access and usage.
Your primary workspace is created automatically
When you sign up, PhantomBuster creates a primary workspace for you. This is where your 14-day free trial begins, and you can start launching automations right away.
If you haven't signed up yet, learn how to create and activate your primary workspace.
How to create a new workspace
You can create as many workspaces as you need, each with its own subscription, billing, team and automation setup.
Steps to create a new workspace:
- Log in to your PhantomBuster primary workspace.
- Hover over your name in the top right corner and click the double arrow icon next to your current workspace name.
- Scroll to the bottom of the dropdown and click New workspace.
- Enter a Workspace name and a Slug, then click Create workspace.
Keep in mind that you will not be able to change your workspace slug after creation. However, you can update the Workspace name anytime from your Workspace Settings page.
How to switch between workspaces
If you’ve been invited to a different workspace, for example, your company’s paid workspace, you’ll need to manually switch into it to access the correct features and limits.
To move between workspaces:
- Log in to your PhantomBuster primary workspace.
- Hover over your name in the top right corner and click the double arrow icon next to your current workspace name.
- Select the workspace you want to switch to.
A checkmark will show which one is currently active.
You're seeing trial limits after joining a paid workspace
If you're still seeing Free Trial limits after being invited to a paid workspace, you're likely in your personal workspace (created automatically when you signed up).
Switching to your company’s workspace will give you access to the paid subscription and correct usage limits.

Once your new workspace is created, you can:
