Last updated September 3, 2026 · 3 min read · Tier L1

Short answer

Applies to: Foxit Workspace, version 0.1.3 and laterWhat is a Project in Foxit Workspace?

A Project is the core organizational unit in Foxit Workspace. Each Project is its own independent knowledge space that holds two kinds of content: your Sources (the files you upload) and Artifacts (the outputs AI generates from them). All Sources inside a Project are indexed together, so AI Chat can search and cite across everything in that Project at once.

How do I create a new Project?
  1. Open Foxit Workspace and go to the Home page.
  2. Click + Create Project at the top of the left navigation.
  3. Enter a project name (required).
  4. Optionally, drag files into the Sources area to add them right away, and/or add notes in Project Context (scope, constraints, terms, or key decisions the AI should keep in mind for this project).
  5. Click OK.

Workspace opens the new project immediately, ready for you to add more Sources or start chatting with AI.

How do I find a Project again later?

The Home page's left navigation has four sections: Home (all your projects), Archived, Shared (projects others have shared with you), and Search (search across projects, files, and content). Below the navigation, a Pinned section lists any project you've pinned, as a one-click shortcut.
