User Workspace

Your workspace is your personal hub inside InstaCharts. Everything you create - sheets, charts, and shares - lives here, and all your account settings and usage details are managed from this area.

Dashboard

When you log in, the dashboard is the first thing you see. It lists all your sheets and gives you quick access to create new ones.

Selecting a Workspace

In the upper left corner of the dashboard you’ll find the workspace selector. Workspaces let you organize your sheets into separate groups - for example, by project, client, or team.

Clicking the workspace selector opens a dropdown where you can:

  • Switch workspaces - select any workspace to load its sheets in the dashboard
  • Add a new workspace - create a fresh workspace with its own set of sheets
  • Rename a workspace - update the name of an existing workspace

When you switch workspaces, the dashboard reloads to show only the sheets in the selected workspace.

The dashboard shows all your sheets in a workspace. Double-click any sheet to open it.

From the dashboard you can:

  • Open a sheet - double-click any row to open it
  • Rename a sheet - open the row menu (the three-dot icon) and select Rename
  • Delete a sheet - open the row menu and select Delete

Creating a new sheet

There are two ways to create a new sheet from the dashboard:

  1. Click the Add Sheet button in the upper left corner and follow the upload prompts
  2. Drag and drop a spreadsheet file directly onto the dashboard

For a full walkthrough, see Import Data from File or Import from Google Sheets.

Usage & Plan

InstaCharts operates on a task and share quota system. Your current usage is always visible at a glance on the dashboard sidebar.

Your remaining tasks for the current 30-day window are shown on the left sidebar of the dashboard.

Tasks

Tasks are consumed whenever InstaCharts runs an automated action on your behalf - such as a data sync or a template-generated chart. The task counter is a rolling 30-day total.

See Tasks for a full breakdown of what counts as a task.

Shares

Each public view of a shared chart counts toward your monthly share quota. Shares are counted per sheet, not per chart.

See Share Charts for more detail on share types and settings.

Account Settings

Account settings are accessible from the user menu in the top-right corner of any page.

From account settings you can:

  • Change your email or password
  • Manage your subscription - upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your plan

The table below summarizes the key limits for each plan tier. Limits reset on a rolling 30-day basis unless noted otherwise.
