Workspaces | Insights

Identity Security Insights can discover thousands of accounts across many providers. That full view is right for someone who oversees the whole organization. It's the wrong view for someone who owns two AWS accounts and one Microsoft Entra ID tenant.

A workspace is a saved, named scope built from the environments Insights has already discovered. When you select a workspace, Insights filters its pages to show only the environments in that scope.

How workspaces work

• Build a scope from discovered environments. You choose from the environments Insights has already found in your tenant, so you don't need to look up IDs.
• Your selection applies across Insights. The workspace you select stays applied as you move between pages, until you select a different workspace or clear the selection.
• Workspaces are shared. Any workspace you create is available to everyone in your tenant, and stays available unless it is deleted. Your selected workspace applies only to your current session, so you need to select it again the next time you sign in.
• A workspace filters the view. It changes what you see on each page.

You can scope a workspace to a whole top-level environment, or to specific environments within it, such as:
