Getting Started

This guide covers accessing your workspace, navigating the interface, and creating your first project.

Your First Workspace

When you sign up for CloudStation, we create a Personal Workspace for you automatically.

Access Your Workspace

After logging in, you'll see your workspace cards. Click on a workspace card to open it.

Projects & Sessions Page

When you enter a workspace, you land on the Projects & Sessions page. Here you'll see:

Project cards showing name, last updated time, and session count
Active badge on projects with running sessions
Search bar to find projects quickly
New Project button to create projects

The sidebar includes these icons:

Chat: AI assistant conversations
Agents: Manage your AI agents
Workspace (building icon): Projects & Sessions view
Templates: Browse available templates
Help (bottom): Documentation and support

The top bar shows breadcrumbs: Workspace name dropdown > Project name dropdown (when inside a project).

Creating Your First Project

Projects organize related applications and services.

Click "New Project"

Find the New Project button on the Projects & Sessions page.

Enter Project Details

Provide basic information:

Project Name: A descriptive name (e.g., "Marketing Website")
Description: What this project does

Use clear, descriptive names. You'll thank yourself later when managing multiple projects.

Start Building

After creating the project, you can start adding sessions and working with your code.

Switching Between Workspaces

If you're part of multiple workspaces:

Click the workspace name dropdown in the top navigation bar.

Select the workspace you want from the list.

The page reloads with that workspace's projects.

Each workspace has its own projects, team members, and settings.

Workspace Settings

To access workspace settings, click the settings icon on the workspace card from the main workspace list. This is where you can manage team members and configure workspace options.

Troubleshooting

Can't See My Workspace?

Make sure you're logged in with the correct account
Check if you were removed from the team workspace
Contact the workspace admin if you should have access

Project Creation Failed?

Verify you haven't hit your plan's project limit
Check that the project name doesn't already exist
Ensure you have the right permissions in the workspace
