How to create workspaces and add members with your AI

Connect Howspace to your agent to manage collaborative spaces. You can spin up new environments and invite people without touching the dashboard.

Ask AI about this page

Short answer

How can I set up a workspace and invite people using AI?

Tell your agent to create a new workspace and then ask it to add specific email addresses as participants. This bypasses the Howspace dashboard. You'll get new environments and sent invitations immediately.

The results of your request

Where your work lands

What happens after you send your prompt.

READY

New workspace live

The agent uses create_workspace to build a fresh environment. You'll have a clean slate for collaboration.

INVITED

Participants notified

The agent uses add_participant to trigger email invites. Your team members get their access links right away.

ACTIVE

Environment is set

The workspace is ready for content. You can move straight to building your collaborative modules.

HUMAN

Manual content setup

The agent handles the setup, but you still decide what goes inside the space. You manage the actual collaborative work.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

Your agent translates your intent into specific Howspace actions.

  3. Identify participants
