# Managing Airbyte Cloud This page will help you manage your Airbyte Cloud workspaces and understand Airbyte Cloud limitations. ## Manage your Airbyte Cloud workspace An Airbyte workspace allows you to collaborate with other users and manage connections under a shared billing account. :::info Airbyte [credits](https://airbyte.com/pricing) are assigned per workspace and cannot be transferred between workspaces. ::: ### Add users to your workspace To add a user to your workspace: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **Access Management**. 3. Click **+ New user**. 4. On the **Add new users** dialog, enter the email address of the user you want to invite to your workspace. 5. Click **Send invitation**. :::info The user will have access to only the workspace you invited them to. They will be added as a workspace admin by default. ::: ### Remove users from your workspace​ To remove a user from your workspace: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **Access Management**. 3. Click **Remove** next to the user’s email. 4. The **Remove user** dialog displays. Click **Remove**. ### Rename a workspace To rename a workspace: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **General Settings**. 3. In the **Workspace name** field, enter the new name for your workspace. 4. Click **Save changes**. ### Delete a workspace To delete a workspace: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **General Settings**. 3. In the **Delete your workspace** section, click **Delete**. ### Single workspace vs. multiple workspaces You can use one or multiple workspaces with Airbyte Cloud. #### Access | Number of workspaces | Benefits | Considerations | |----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Single | All users in a workspace have access to the same data. | If you add a user to a workspace, you cannot limit their access to specific data within that workspace. | | Multiple | You can create multiple workspaces to allow certain users to access data in specific workspaces only. | Have to manage user access for each workspace individually. | #### Billing | Number of workspaces | Benefits | Considerations | |----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Single | You can use the same payment method for all purchases. | Credits pay for the use of resources in a workspace when you run a sync. Resource usage cannot be divided and paid for separately (for example, you cannot bill different departments in your organization for the usage of some credits in one workspace). | | Multiple | You can use the same payment method for all purchases. | It is generally recommended to use the same payment method card for each workspace. ### Switch between multiple workspaces To switch between workspaces: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click the current workspace name under the Airbyte logo in the navigation bar. 2. Click **View all workspaces**. 3. Click the name of the workspace you want to switch to. ### Choose your default data residency Default data residency allows you to choose where your data is processed. :::note Configuring default data residency only applies to new connections and does not affect existing connections. ::: For individual connections, you can choose a data residency that is different from the default through [connection settings](#choose-the-data-residency-for-a-connection) or when you create a [new connection](https://docs.airbyte.com/cloud/getting-started-with-airbyte-cloud#set-up-a-connection). :::note While the data is processed in a data plane in the chosen residency, the cursor and primary key data is stored in the US control plane. If you have data that cannot be stored in the US, do not use it as a cursor or primary key. ::: To choose your default data residency: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **Data Residency**. 3. Click the dropdown and choose the location for your default data residency. 4. Click **Save changes**. :::info Depending on your network configuration, you may need to add [IP addresses](https://docs.airbyte.com/cloud/getting-started-with-airbyte-cloud/#allowlist-ip-addresses) to your allowlist. ::: ## Manage Airbyte Cloud notifications To set up Slack notifications: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Settings**. 2. Click **Notifications**. 3. [Create an Incoming Webhook for Slack](https://api.slack.com/messaging/webhooks). 4. Navigate back to the Airbyte Cloud dashboard > Settings > Notifications and enter the Webhook URL. 5. Toggle the **When sync fails** and **When sync succeeds** buttons as required. 6. Click **Save changes**. ## Understand Airbyte Cloud limits Airbyte Cloud limitations within the Cloud UI (does not apply to customers using [Powered by Airbyte](https://airbyte.com/embed-airbyte-connectors-with-api)) * Max number of workspaces per user: 5* * Max number of sources in a workspace: 20* * Max number of destinations in a workspace: 20* * Max number of connections in a workspace: 20* * Max number of streams that can be returned by a source in a discover call: 1K * Max number of streams that can be configured to sync in a single connection: 1K * Size of a single record: 100MB * Shortest sync schedule: Every 60 min * Schedule accuracy: +/- 30 min *Limits on workspaces, sources, destinations and connections do not apply to customers of [Powered by Airbyte](https://airbyte.com/embed-airbyte-connectors-with-api).

On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com/) dashboard, click **Connections**. 2. Click a connection in the list to view its sync history. Sync History displays the sync status or [reset](https://docs.airbyte.com/operator-guides/reset/) status (Succeeded, Partial Success, Failed, Cancelled, or Running) and the [sync summary](#sync-summary). :::note Airbyte will try to sync your data three times. After a third failure, it will stop attempting to sync. ::: 3. To view the full sync log, click the sync summary dropdown. ### Sync summary | Data | Description | |--------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | x GB (also measured in KB, MB) | Amount of data moved during the sync. If basic normalization is on, the amount of data would not change since normalization occurs in the destination. | | x emitted records | Number of records read from the source during the sync. | | x committed records | Number of records the destination confirmed it received. | | xh xm xs | Total time (hours, minutes, seconds) for the sync and basic normalization, if enabled, to complete. | :::note In a successful sync, the number of emitted records and committed records should be the same. ::: ## Edit stream configuration 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Connections** and then click the connection you want to change. 2. Click the **Replication** tab. The **Transfer** and **Streams** settings include the following parameters: | Parameter | Description | |--------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Replication frequency | How often the data syncs | | [Non-breaking schema updates](#review-non-breaking-schema-changes) detected | How Airbyte handles syncs when it detects non-breaking schema changes in the source | | Destination Namespace | Where the replicated data is written | | Destination Stream Prefix | Helps you identify streams from different connectors | :::note These parameters apply to all streams in the connection. ::: If you need to use [cron scheduling](http://www.quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.3.0/tutorials/crontrigger.html): 1. In the **Replication Frequency** dropdown, click **Cron**. 2. Enter a cron expression and choose a time zone to create a sync schedule. :::note * Only one sync per connection can run at a time. * If cron schedules a sync to run before the last one finishes, the scheduled sync will start after the last sync completes. * Airbyte Cloud does not allow schedules that sync more than once per hour. ::: In the **Activate the streams you want to sync section**, you can make changes to any stream you choose. To search for a stream: 1. Click the **Search stream name** search box. 2. Type the name of the stream you want to find. 3. Streams matching your search are displayed in the list. To change individual stream configuration: ![Single Edit Gif 7](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/106352739/187313088-85c61a6d-1025-45fa-b14e-a7fe86defea4.gif) 1.

If either the source or destination is in alpha or beta, the whole connection is free to sync. When both the source and destination of a connection become [generally available](https://docs.airbyte.com/project-overview/product-release-stages/#general-availability-ga) (GA), the connection will no longer be free. We will email you two weeks before both connectors in a connection move to GA. ::: Before enrolling in the program, [set up](https://docs.airbyte.com/cloud/getting-started-with-airbyte-cloud#set-up-a-source) at least one alpha or beta connector and verify your email if you haven't already. To enroll in the program: 1. On the [Airbyte Cloud](http://cloud.airbyte.com) dashboard, click **Credits** in the navigation bar. 2. Click **Enroll now** in the **Free Connector Program** banner. 3. Click **Enroll now**. 4. Input your credit card information and click **Save card**. :::note Credit card information is required, even if you previously bought credits on Airbyte Cloud. This ensures uninterrupted syncs when both connectors move to GA. ::: Since alpha and beta connectors are still in development, support is not provided. For additional resources, check out our [Connector Catalog](https://docs.airbyte.com/integrations/), [Troubleshooting & FAQ](https://docs.airbyte.com/troubleshooting/), and our [Community Slack](https://slack.airbyte.io/). ### Buy credits This section guides you through purchasing credits on Airbyte Cloud.
