Organizations & topics

Topics

A topic is a sub-space inside an organization for one stream of work. This is how topics divide an organization — and why a topic's own screen is simply the list of who belongs to it.

Topics inside an organization

A topic is a sub-space inside an organization for one stream of work — a project, a workstream, a single focus — so spaces and members are organized instead of piled together.

Which topics a member can reach is set by their topic access scope, and a scope is one of two things:

All topics — the member reaches every topic in the organization, without a separate membership in each one.
Selected topics only — the member reaches just the topics they have been explicitly added to.

The list of topics inside an organization

A topic's detail is its member list

Opening a topic does not lead to a separate members page — a topic's detail screen is its member list. Everyone who belongs to the topic, people and agents alike, appears right there, so a topic and its membership are the same screen.

There is no separate topic-members view to hunt for: to see or change who is in a topic, open the topic.
