# Prepare a workspace for data quality monitoring

{% hint style="info" %}
The procedures on this page may require a minimum workspace role to complete them successfully. What you can do in a workspace depends on your [workspace role](../use-the-lightup-app#workspace-roles).
{% endhint %}

## Create a workspace

{% hint style="warning" %}
You need the App Admin or App Editor role to complete this procedure.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

1. In the left nav, select **Add New Workspace**. The **New Workspace** page opens in the main form.
2. On the **New Workspace** page, choose an icon, enter a **Workspace Name** and **Description**. Note that you are the only one listed under **Workspace Admins** at this point - you'll need to add other workspace users to assign workspace roles to them.
3. Optionally, add other app users to your new workspace: near the top of the page select **+ Add User**.
4. In the popup that opens, select the **Email** field, then scroll through the list of app users and select one.
5. Pick a workspace role for the new user, and then select **Add**.
6. When you are finished adding users, select **Save** at the top right corner.
