General

Configure basic workspace information, defaults, and preferences.

Workspace details

  • Icon and name: Set a display name and icon with custom color for the workspace.
  • Workspace URL: The URL identifier for your workspace. Changing it redirects old URLs automatically.
  • Description: Describe the purpose of the workspace and the type of requests it handles. The agent uses this description for intelligent request routing. When users submit requests, the agent analyzes the description to determine which workspace should handle the request.
    Write descriptions that clearly define scope and responsibilities. Example: “This is the IT workspace. We handle requests related to software access, equipment, Slack channels, and group management.”
  • Private workspace: Toggle whether the workspace is private (accessible only by workspace members) or public (accessible to all organization members).

Default channel

Select the default for the workspace. When a default is set, tickets that don’t match a specific channel are routed here.

Default form

Select the default for the workspace. When a default is set, new tickets use this form unless the submitter selects a different one.

Workspace settings

Assignee options

Configure who can be assigned to tickets in this workspace.
  • Organization members: Any member of the organization can be assigned to tickets.
  • Workspace members: Only members of this workspace can be assigned to tickets.
Default: Organization members
Control whether third-party Slack bot users (e.g., Claude, Jira, GitHub bots) can interact with your workspace. When enabled:
  • Message sync: Messages sent by third-party bots in Slack threads are synced into the corresponding Ravenna tickets.
  • Mentions: Bot users appear in mention and tag dropdowns across tickets, workflows, and rules.
When disabled, bot messages from Slack are not synced and bot users do not appear in mention dropdowns.
Only message events from bots are synced. Other bot activity like reactions and channel joins are never synced, regardless of this setting. Ravenna’s own bot messages are always excluded to prevent message loops.
Default: Disabled

Workspace ID

A read-only identifier for your workspace used in API integrations and support requests.

Danger zone

  • Leave workspace: Remove yourself from the workspace and lose access to its data. You cannot leave if you are the last member or last admin.
  • Delete workspace: Permanently delete the workspace and all of its data, including tickets, channels, settings, and member access. This action requires workspace admin permissions and cannot be undone.

Connections

Configure which Slack channels are connected to your workspace and control visibility settings. Triage channel: Connect a Slack channel to use as your triage channel for reviewing and managing incoming requests. Request channels: Connect one or more Slack channels where users can submit requests. Messages in these channels can automatically create tickets.
