You belong to more than one organisation in Pyn, for example a live workspace and a sandbox, or two companies you consult for. Switching changes which workspace every page shows without signing you out.

## Before you start

- Your email address is linked to at least two workspaces. If an admin of the other workspace has not invited you yet, it will not appear in the list.

![Switch Workspace lists every workspace your email address is linked to, with Create a new Workspace first.](https://support.pynhq.com/media/account/workspaces/account-workspaces-switch.png)

## Steps

1. In Pyn, select your avatar at the bottom of the left navigation. The menu opens with the current workspace's name as its heading.

2. Select **Switch Workspace**.

3. On the **Switch Workspace** page, select the workspace you want from the list. The first entry, **Create a new Workspace**, starts a new one instead.

> **Note:** Playground workspaces are hidden from the list. Leave a playground with **Exit** on its banner or **Exit Playground Mode** in the profile menu, which takes you back through sign-in to your real workspaces.

## What you should see

[Home](https://support.pynhq.com/home/) for the workspace you chose, with its name at the top of the profile menu. Pyn clears everything it had loaded from the previous workspace, so tables and counts reload. Your role can differ between workspaces; the navigation shows only what your role in this one allows.
