Leaving a Baserow Workspace - What You Need to Know

Leaving a workspace only removes that one member’s access - it doesn’t touch the workspace itself or anyone else’s data - and this article covers what leaving means in practice, the last-admin restriction, and how to get back in later.

What Happens When You Leave

The moment a member leaves a workspace, they immediately lose access to every database, table, and other content in it - the workspace itself keeps running for everyone else. Nothing that member created goes away: other users still see and edit the tables, rows, and databases they were involved in.

The Last-Admin Restriction

A workspace’s last remaining admin cannot leave it - before doing so, either promote another member to admin or delete the workspace outright if nobody needs it anymore. For how roles are assigned and changed, see Setting Up a Workspace .

How to Leave a Workspace

  1. Open the home page and go to the workspace in question.
  2. Click the workspace name to open its action menu.
  3. Choose Leave workspace.
  4. Confirm the action in the dialog.

Rejoining Later

There’s no way to rejoin a workspace on your own after leaving - a workspace admin has to send a new invitation. If rejoining is likely, it’s worth arranging that invitation with an admin ahead of time.

Before leaving, it’s worth exporting anything you’ll still need - covered in Export Workspaces .
