To access Workspaces, click the **Create new** button or the name of your active Workspace in the left-hand navigation bar of the AI Hub. The dropdown menu that appears will display the "Create new" button and Workspaces your account has joined.

Click a Workspace to select it. When your Workspace is selected, you'll see a check next to the Workspace name in the selector, and you'll be able to use Workspace-specific features like the [Cloud Compiler](https://docs.degirum.com/ai-hub/workspaces/cloud-compiler).
