How to Manage Workspaces and Projects

Workspaces and projects in Discorra help you organize corpora for analysis.
This article walks through creating a workspace, adding corpora, structuring datasets, and archiving old projects.

Task

Keep your analysis organized by assigning datasets to the right workspace and project, grouped by theme, campaign, or client.

Prerequisites

A Discorra account with Pro or higher (Free plan supports only one workspace).
Uploaded text files or URLs to import as corpora.

Instructions

1. Creating a new workspace

Go to Dashboard → Workspaces.
Click Create Workspace.
Enter a name (e.g., Marketing Campaign Q4 or Client A).
(Optional) Add a description and set permissions if collaborating.
Click Save to create your workspace.

2. Adding corpora to a project

From the workspace view, click New Project.
Choose a project type (e.g., Campaign copy, Customer reviews).
Upload your corpus by:
- Pasting text,
- Uploading a CSV or TXT, or
- Importing from the web.
Discorra will tokenize and count words automatically.

3. Organizing datasets by theme, campaign, or client

By theme: Group corpora like sustainability, innovation, pricing.
By campaign: Keep corpora for Holiday 2025 separate from Spring 2026.
By client: Create one workspace per client to avoid overlap.

Tip: Use clear naming conventions (Client_Project_Date) so datasets are easy to locate later.

4. Deleting or archiving old projects

Navigate to the project list in your workspace.
Hover over the project and click ⋮ Options.
Select Archive (keeps results but removes from active view) or Delete (permanently removes).
Confirm your choice.

Note: Archived projects can be restored at any time. Deleted projects cannot be recovered.

Outcome

You’ll have a well-structured workspace where projects and corpora are easy to find, analyze, and share with your team.
