# 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.

## 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.

When your workspace account is ready, Scholars 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.

## Frequently asked questions

## What happens when my work ends?

Workspace accounts are connected to active work on Scholars. If you no longer have an active contract that needs a workspace account, the workspace account may be suspended.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.scholars.net/how-to/use-your-workspace-account.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
