# Use your workspace account

Some jobs on Scholars require a dedicated workspace account. This is a work email account used to access project tools and resources.

Your workspace account can be used for Google services connected to your work, including Google Docs, Sheets, Drive, and Chat.

## When will I receive a workspace account?

If a workspace account is needed for your job, Scholars creates it after you have an active contract for that job.

If you already had a workspace account before joining Scholars, the existing account may be linked to your profile instead of creating a duplicate. Once linked, it appears in the *Account* tab like any other workspace account.

When Scholars creates a new workspace account for you, it emails your personal email address with:

* your workspace email address,
* a temporary password,
* a link to sign in.

Your personal email is also associated with the workspace account, so support teams can identify which Scholars profile the workspace account belongs to.

After signing in, you may be asked to change the temporary password.

## Where can I see my workspace email?

Go to [app.scholars.net/talent/profile?tab=account](https://app.scholars.net/talent/profile?tab=account).

If you have a workspace account, the *Account* tab shows the workspace email address. If no workspace account has been created for you yet, the tab says that you do not have one.

## How do I reset my workspace password?

From the *Account* tab, click *Reset workspace password*.

Scholars will generate a new temporary password and email it to your personal email address.
