Let Partner Admins manager Workspace Owners
in progress
Thomas Abbe
As a Partner Admin I want be able to manage Workspace Owners in order to clean up orphaned workspaces.
A partner admin should be able to override workspace IAM settings. However, "add myself to workspace" adds myself with the "Workspace manager" role to a workspace so that he is not able to add/remove Workspace Owners.
I am aware of the workaround by adding a Workspace Owner via API. However this call would fail if there are already 2 workspace owners assigned. And with the API call it is not possible, to remove the Workspace Owner.

Dear all,
Thank you so much for your votes and feedback! This has been one of the most requested features, and I’m excited to share that we are actively working on it.
Soon, you’ll be able to manage users directly from the admin area. This includes assigning, deleting, and changing roles, as well as setting expiration dates—all without needing to assign yourself to this workspace.
Stay tuned! I’ll notify you as soon as the feature is ready.
Best regards,
Polina

Manage Access of Workspaces within AdminArea

As an admin, I want to directly manage the access of a workspace within the Admin Area. Currently, it requires several steps to achieve that. First, assigning myself to the workspace. Then I have to switch the workspace via the navigation bar to access the workspace control plane's "Access Control" Tab.

Thomas, thanks a lot for writing it down! Since we discussed this last week, I have just one question:
How do you understand when a Workspace becomes orphaned and how often it happens in the year?
Thomas Abbe
Polina Sadykova We have some jobs which are regularily triggered and which require internal employees as workspace owner. So if Entra ID/meshstack Workspace API return no valid users, we get an error.
The frequency is about 1 workspace/3 months
