What Is a Workspace

Trickle workspace is where people can connect and find the information needed. Each workspace comprises various channels — it could be a virtual tea space ☕️, a knowledge vault 📚, or a study group ✏️. You can be part of more than one workspace.

You can reorder your workspace list by dragging workspace icons up and down.
