Workspace branding
your mark where ours was
Two images make the sidebar yours: a square mark in the workspace switcher, a wide logo at the top. Both are saved to your account.
In short
What is workspace branding?
Workspace branding puts your organisation's logo where the software vendor's would sit, so the app you work in wears your name. It changes the screen, not the mail you send.

How it works
A square mark, a wide logo
The mark stands for the workspace in the switcher at the top of the sidebar, and is all that shows there when the sidebar collapses. The logo replaces ours at the top.
Upload it, see where it lands
Both are uploaded in Settings, under Appearance. The page draws your sidebar open and collapsed beside them, so you see where each one lands.
Saved to you, not the workspace
The pair is saved to your account, so it follows you to any machine and every workspace. Someone you share an address with still sees ours.
What you get
In the product today
Replace or remove
Swap either image, or remove it and ours comes back.
SVG stays sharp
Vector art is drawn at full size, so its edges stay clean.
Any machine
It travels with your account, not with one browser.
Yours alone
Nobody else's sidebar changes, teammates included.
Good practice
Getting the most out of it
- 01
Centre the glyph
The mark is cropped to a circle when the sidebar collapses, so keep the artwork centred.
- 02
Mind the width
The logo is drawn 28px tall and 112px wide at most, so anything wider than four to one shrinks.
- 03
Test the dark theme
The same image is shown in the light and dark themes, so dark lettering on a transparent background can disappear.
