Connect Trust
Configure trusted workspaces in your workspace settings to automatically accept Connect invitations from partner workspaces and speed up collaboration.
Connect Trust cuts down the effort involved in ongoing collaboration. Workspace admins can mark external workspaces as trusted partners, so Connect invitations from those workspaces get accepted automatically. No approvals. No delays. Instant collaboration with people you already trust.
Key benefits and use cases

- Faster onboarding for shared projects

No more recurring approval work for Connect invitations from known partners.
How to use Connect Trust
Workspace admins set up Connect Trust in the workspace settings.
Add a trusted workspace
- Go to Settings (gear icon in the bottom left of the main menu)
- Select Connect
- In the Trusted Workspaces section, click + Add.
- Enter the Workspace ID or URL of the partner workspace.
- Click Save.
After you save, a badge appears confirming the trust connection.
Important: The receiving workspace always sets the trust.
How Connect Trust works
When a trusted workspace sends a Connect invitation to users in your workspace, the invitation gets accepted automatically.
- Automatic acceptance
Invitations from trusted workspaces skip the manual approval process. - Workspace-level control
The receiving workspace has to enable trust first.
Security fallback for multi-workspace users:
If a user belongs to multiple workspaces and the correct one can't be clearly determined, the standard approval flow kicks in to make sure users never get connected to the wrong workspace.
Permissions and access control
- Workspace admins can add and remove trusted workspaces.
- Regular team members can't view or change trusted workspace settings.
Known limitations and notes
Trust is one-way by default. If Workspace A trusts Workspace B, only invitations from B to A get accepted automatically. For two-way trust, both workspaces need to add each other as trusted.
