# Organizations & Workspaces

Before you begin any analytical work in RootCause, you need to be in the right place. All of the [seven-step workflow](/start-here/workflow.md) — from connecting data through producing reports — happens inside a workspace. Understanding the container model will help you stay organized as your work grows.

## Organization

Your top-level account. Contains workspaces, users, and billing settings. Most companies have one organization with multiple workspaces for different teams or projects.

## Workspace

A workspace is the collaboration boundary for a specific project or team. Each workspace has its own datasets, ontology, digital twins, simulations, and reports. Use workspaces to separate different analytical domains — marketing might have one workspace, operations another.

In other words, a workspace is the container that keeps one analytical domain separate from another. When you create a new workspace, you start with a clean slate: no data, no models, no reports. Everything you build stays within that workspace.

## Main Sections

Within a workspace, you'll find three main sections that correspond to the stages of the workflow:

| Section                                                                                                                                          | Purpose                                                   |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| <p><a href="/pages/L6jDEKavAeyhkntYOHYg"><strong>Data</strong></a></p><p><img src="/files/M4iqpvJ8jI9yyMoPyZe5" alt="" data-size="original"></p> | Manage datasets, create data views, configure ontology    |
| [**Digital Twin**](/more-details/digital-twin.md)![](/files/7fHQTZTqbxC3QHvRVEiT)                                                                | Build digital twins, run simulations, create applications |
| [**Reports**](/user-guide/reports.md)![](/files/WnD6sDHLxai35xBopZBB)                                                                            | Create and share analytical reports                       |

The **Data** section covers steps 1–3 of the workflow (Connect Data, Build Ontology, Build 360 Table). The **Digital Twin** section covers steps 4–6 (Build Causal Graph, Build Digital Twin, Run Simulations). The **Reports** section covers step 7 (Produce Reports).

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rootcause.ai/start-here/navigation.md?ask=<question>
