# Chats
Chats give admins a private, workspace-level chat to ask questions across all connected data sources.
They work just like a project, with every data source in your workspace connected.
**Key differences between Chats and projects**\
Chats and [projects](/workspace/projects.md) share the same building blocks, but differ in a few important ways:
* **Who can use it**: Chats are available to workspace admins and owners only. Projects can include any workspace member.
* **Data access**: Chats connect to every data source in your workspace. Projects connect only to the data sources assigned to them.
* **Visibility**: Chats are private to the admin who created them. Projects are visible to all their members.
* **Collaboration**: Chats are for individual use and cannot be shared. Projects are built for team collaboration, with shared workspaces, member roles, and permissions.
## Using Chats
Chats appear in the sidebar, with your most recent ones listed there for quick access. Click **Chats** to view your full list, or **New Chat** to start a fresh one.
Workspace level chats
Inside a chat, ask questions in natural language across every connected data source in your workspace. You can ask questions that span your entire environment without switching between projects.
As you investigate, create queries, canvases, alerts, and workflows directly from the conversation. All assets are owned by that chat.
Your chats are persistent. Return to any previous chat from the sidebar and pick up where you left off.

## FAQs
### Can I share a chat with another admin?
No. Chats are private to the workspace admin or owner who created them and cannot be shared, even with other admins or owners.
### Can members see my chats?
No. The Chats section is only visible to admins. Members do not see it and their experience in projects is unchanged.
### What happens to assets I create in a chat?
Chat assets (queries, canvases, alerts, and workflows) are owned by that chat and stay with it. You can access them any time by returning to the chat.

## 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.sola.security/workspace/chats.md?ask=&goal=
```
`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.
