## 2.1.1 What is a Workspace Administrator?

Workspace administrators have all the rights and privileges available to developer and manage administrator tasks specific to a workspace.

In Oracle APEX, users sign in to a shared work area called a workspace. A workspace enables multiple users to work within the same APEX installation while keeping their objects, data and applications private. This flexible architecture enables a single database instance to manage thousands of applications.

Within a workspace, End users can only run existing database or Websheet application. Developers can create and edit applications, monitor workspace activity, and view dashboards. APEX includes two administrator roles:

- Workspace administrators are users who perform administrator tasks specific to a workspace.
- Instance administrators are superusers that manage an entire hosted APEX instance which may contain multiple workspaces.

Workspace administrators can reset passwords, view product and environment information, manage the Export Repository, manage saved interactive reports, view the workspace summary report, and manage Websheet database objects. Additionally, workspace administrators manage service requests, configure workspace preferences, manage user accounts, monitor workspace activity, and view log files.
