# Workgroup

## What is a Workgroup?

A workgroup is a logical space that dataflows or other workgroups can be grouped in. You can imagine workgroups as a folder where you can logically group your workgroups and dataflows.&#x20;

## How to add a Workgroup?

Click on **Add Workgroup** in your workstation or in an already existing workgroup

![Add Workgroup to Local Workstation](https://1816849651-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXH5BBI7oFohDcuyN6P%2F-Mk2auE64gycLtSgstEz%2F-Mk2b_1hxSTp5OxXKvUM%2FAddWgInit.png?alt=media\&token=2eacff4c-1294-4fc5-a27b-f1fea6c12c3d)

You will be prompted a name for the Workgroup you want to add:

Once you enter a name and click Add Workgroup, you will see your new workgroup in your workstation page. You can copy/move other workgroups and dataflows under this one. To see how copy/move works please see [here](../workstation#how-do-i-copy-or-move-workgroups-dataflows-from-a-remote-workstation). :warning: Copying/Moving a workgroup will also relocate the workgroups and dataflows inside it.



You can create nested workgroups and have a tree-like structure in your workstation:

![Nested Workgroups](https://1816849651-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXH5BBI7oFohDcuyN6P%2F-Mk2c3bNwoW99QVPhOmc%2F-Mk2cOkzyGnP0cHnTQ-x%2FWGNested.png?alt=media\&token=bb269653-3e42-48d1-a81d-4cf24b97bd22)

:white\_check\_mark: Now you have workgroups that can help you organize your dataguess data. You can always change your workgroups' name by editing them.

## How to delete a Workgroup?

:red\_circle: :warning: **Deleting a workgroup will also delete all of the content that workgroup contains. If you want to delete the workgroup and keep the data under it, you need to copy/move them first.**

If you are sure about deleting your workgroup, you can do it so by clicking **Remove** under the menu:

![](https://1816849651-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXH5BBI7oFohDcuyN6P%2F-Mk2c3bNwoW99QVPhOmc%2F-Mk2dQavPj5Fd1PRCOF2%2FDeleteButtonWG.png?alt=media\&token=9c6b388f-96d7-4d73-8d7b-f6da1cd9a404)

Once you click **Remove**, you have to confirm once more that you want to delete the workgroup and all of the content.

![Delete Workgroup confirmation](https://1816849651-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-MXH5BBI7oFohDcuyN6P%2F-Mk2c3bNwoW99QVPhOmc%2F-Mk2deZ0Bn6Rtg-F8bdm%2FDeleteWG.png?alt=media\&token=449bd76d-b74f-4b50-be1f-debc2cf6fd2d)

:white\_check\_mark: Once you click **Yes, continue** you successfully removed your workgroup.
