# Manage workspaces

> Connect to, monitor, and manage workspaces

The workspace detail page in Codewire shows workspace status and provides connection options.

## Accessing a workspace

1. Expand a resource in the sidebar to see its workspaces, or
2. Go to the resource detail page and click a workspace in the workspaces table

## Workspace detail page

The detail page shows:

* **Name** — displayed as `owner/workspace-name`
* **Status badge** — current state (running, stopped, starting, etc.)
* **Last used** — relative timestamp
* **Template** — which template it was created from

## Connect buttons

The workspace page provides quick connection options:

| Button       | Description                                  |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------- |
| **Open IDE** | Open the workspace in the browser-based IDE  |
| **Terminal** | Launch a web terminal session                |
| **VS Code**  | Deep link to open in VS Code Desktop via SSH |
| **Web**      | Open web apps running in the workspace       |

## Workspace actions

Workspace lifecycle actions (start, stop, restart, rebuild, delete) are managed through the **Coder interface**, not the Codewire dashboard. Click **Open Coder** on the resource detail page to access these actions.

<Note>
  The Codewire dashboard provides monitoring and connection shortcuts. For full workspace management (scheduling, template updates, rebuilds), use the Coder dashboard at `your-subdomain.codewire.sh`.
</Note>

## Resources

The resources section shows the infrastructure backing the workspace:

* **Pod** — the running VM/container
* **Agents** — processes providing access to the workspace
  * Agent name, status, OS, architecture, and version
  * Available apps (terminal, code-server, custom apps)
