Set Up Your WorkSights Account

Your WorkSights workspace begins here. This setup flow defines your company identity, core defaults, and the services WorkSights connects to. These settings ensure accurate scheduling, correct holiday logic, and smooth integrations across your organization.

Before You Begin

Make sure you are:

  • Signed up with your organization’s Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 administrator account
  • Able to manage company-wide settings and integrations

Account Setup

Step 1 – Choose Your Account Name

WorkSights automatically names your workspace based on your primary domain (for example, acme.com).

You can rename it anytime to a company-specific or regional label for easier identification, such as Acme Europe or Acme HQ.

You can update this name later under Account Settings. Click on the current account name in the list:

Step 2 – Set Your Default Country and Region

Choose the country and region where most of your employees are based.

WorkSights uses this information to map public holidays and working days automatically.

You can override these defaults later for individual users or teams.

Step 3 – Enable Connected Services

WorkSights connects to tools your organization already uses, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Zoom, GitHub, and more. Enable any services your company plans to use with WorkSights.

If you leave additional services enabled, WorkSights simply stays ready in the background. It processes activity only when relevant data exists.

WorkSights reads only metadata such as timestamps, titles, and audit events. It does not access message content or file contents.

Step 4 – Accept the Terms

Review and accept WorkSights Terms and Conditions to continue.
