Workspaces
Everything in Blecon Track lives inside a workspace — your team's shared environment for tracking assets, configuring alert rules, and monitoring activity. A workspace gives you a single place to manage your live map, zones, alerts, and the people who need access to them.
What a workspace contains
A workspace holds everything your operations team works with in Track:
- Assets — The devices and items you're tracking on the map.
- Zones — Named geographic areas used for geofencing and monitoring.
- Rules and alerts — Conditions that trigger alerts and the active alerts your team is working through.
- Notifications — Email, webhook, and in-app delivery of alert events.
- Members — The people who have access to the workspace, each with a role that controls what they can do.
- Settings — Workspace-level configuration including accuracy and distance filters.
Workspaces and Blecon Network
A workspace connects to a Blecon Network, which provides device connectivity and positioning. The Network handles the low-level infrastructure — hotspots, positioning, and data routing. The workspace is the Track application layer on top: the map, rules, alerts, and team access.
Blecon Track workspaces and Blecon Network accounts have separate member lists. A person may have access to one, both, or neither:
- Workspace members (managed in Track settings) control who can view the map, manage alert rules, and respond to alerts.
- Account members (managed in the Blecon Console) control who can manage networks, devices, and hotspots.
Creating a workspace
A workspace is created when you first set up Blecon Track. During setup you connect the workspace to a Blecon Network and become its Owner.
Member roles
Access to a workspace is role-based:
| Role | Capabilities |
|---|---|
| Owner | Full access. Can manage workspace settings, members, and delete the workspace. |
| Admin | Can create and manage zones, alert rules, webhooks, and view all data. |
| Viewer | Read-only access to the map, assets, and alerts. Cannot create or modify rules or zones. |
