Rename, transfer or delete a workspace

Workspace settings in CodeQR — the name, the slug, the logo, when a second workspace is worth it, how to hand one over, and what deletion destroys.

A workspace holds your links, QR codes, pages, domains, people and one subscription. The interface sometimes calls it a project; they are the same thing, and this help center calls it a workspace.

Availability

  • Plan: every plan. All the settings below are owner-only.
  • Where: Settings → General.

Rename it

The name is a label and can change freely. The slug is different: it appears in the address of every dashboard page. Changing it changes those addresses, which breaks bookmarks and links your team has saved — your short links themselves are unaffected, because those live on your domain, not on the dashboard address.

The logo

Upload one under Settings → General. It appears in the workspace switcher and helps when someone belongs to several.

One workspace or several

The question that decides it: do billing, people and data have to be completely separate?

  • One workspace with folders is right for an agency serving several clients with the same team. Five people covering eight clients is five seats.
  • Separate workspaces are right when each side needs its own invoice, its own people and no visibility into the other. The same five people across eight workspaces is forty seats.

Since links do not move between workspaces the way they move between folders, this decision is expensive to reverse. Start with one workspace and folders unless separation is a requirement — see Choose between folders and tags to organize links.

Hand a workspace over

There is no transfer button. The sequence is:

  1. Invite the new person, or find them if they are already a member.
  2. Promote them to owner from their row in Settings → People.
  3. Remove yourself, or stay as a member.

Doing it in that order means the workspace is never without an owner.

Delete a workspace

Deleting is permanent and takes everything with it: the links and QR codes stop resolving, and their statistics go with them. Anything printed or already shared becomes a dead address.

Before deleting:

  • Export any statistics you need.
  • Move whatever should survive to another workspace by recreating it there.
  • Confirm nothing in circulation still points at those links.

If the goal is only to stop paying, cancel the subscription instead — the workspace stays, and the links keep working under the free plan's limits.

Verify it works

After renaming the slug, open a dashboard address with the old one: it no longer resolves, which is the confirmation that the change took. Your short links, tested with curl, keep answering exactly as before:

curl -sSI https://go.example.com/summer
HTTP/2 302
location: https://example.com/menu

Troubleshooting

The slug I want is taken

Slugs are unique across CodeQR. Pick another; it affects only dashboard addresses.

I cannot change these settings

They are owner-only. Ask an owner, or have them promote you — What owners and members can each do.

I deleted a workspace by mistake

The links are gone and cannot be restored from the dashboard. If the addresses were in circulation, recreate them as fast as possible with the same domain and keys.

How many workspaces can I have

A free account can hold two. Paid plans are per workspace, so a second one is a second subscription.

My teammate sees a different workspace

They are in another one. The switcher at the top of the sidebar lists everything their account belongs to.
