Workspaces and Teams

The most important boundary in AsterDrive is the workspace.

ItemPersonal spaceTeam space
File ownershipCurrent userCurrent team
SharesOnly shares created in the personal spaceOnly shares created in the team space
Recycle binThe personal space’s own binEach team’s own bin
Task centerPersonal tasksTeam tasks
SearchSearches the current personal spaceSearches the current team space
WebDAVPersonal accounts open only personal filesTeam accounts open only that team’s files
Storage routePolicy group bound to the userPolicy group bound to the team

After you switch workspaces on the left, files, shares, tasks, recycle bin, and search results all switch with it. This is also the first step when troubleshooting “why can’t I see a file / share / task”: confirm which workspace you are currently in.

Teams are usually understood in three roles:

RoleWho it fitsWhat they can do
OwnerTeam leadManage the team, members, and team files
AdminDay-to-day maintainerManage members and daily team content
MemberRegular collaboratorUse files, shares, and tasks in the team space

Settings -> Teams lists the teams you have joined. You can:

  • View team name, description, member count, and space usage
  • Open a team workspace directly
  • View archived teams

If you are an owner or admin of a team, you can also enter the team management page to handle members and team info, and view team audit; with the corresponding permission, you can restore archived teams.

  • A team space is not a separate site; it is served by the same AsterDrive service
  • Team spaces have their own WebDAV accounts; the WebDAV address is global, and the account credentials decide whether a client enters the personal space or a team space
  • Team quota and personal user quota are separate concepts
  • Shares, recycle bin, tasks, and tag libraries in a team are all separate from the personal space
  • When you cannot find “the share from earlier” or “the task from earlier” in a team, first confirm the current workspace is correct
  1. Is the user a team member?
  2. Is the user’s role in the team sufficient?
  3. Is the current workspace the target team?
  4. Is the team archived?
  5. Do the relevant shares, tasks, or recycle bin items belong to the same team space?

The full admin triage path (policy groups, audit, tasks) is in Users and Teams.
