Hey
Just got teams account & invited one of my team mebers in to it. How can I create “shared chat” where we bot can see replies/send requests to ?

I also am wondering the same thing. Finding it hard to understand the point of a “workspace” if the chats are not shared…
Is this feature something that’s coming? Figured that would be standard within a shared workspace that cost extra per month…

doesnt make sense as im under the impression when purchasing its all about sharing chats…why would they call it “Teams” and have a feature called “Workspace”

Unfortunately, the ability to share chats and have others continue those chats has been deprecated across all plans. There is no news on when/if this functionality will return.
Currently, chat sharing is handled in 2 different ways depending on your subscription:
-
With a Plus subscription, you are able to share a chat and the 3rd party can view the current snapshot that is taken at the time the link was generated.
-
With a Team subscription, the chat remains “Live”. This means that, while the recipient of the chat link cannot continue the conversation where it left off, each time they click the link they will be able to view the current version of the conversation (including any requests and replies the original user has added since the link was generated).

Echoing what was said before it’s super misleading to have something called “Team” which has workspaces if you can’t have all team members on the same chat. The expectation for a feature that allows real-time collaboration within the team workspace seems fundamental, not optional. It’s perplexing why such a critical functionality, which actually would facilitate team synergy and productivity, would be removed without a clear alternative. What’s the rationale (if any) behind this decision and will it be reintroduce in some way?

I upgraded my subscription specifically because the shared workspace language on the website made it seem like shared chats were a feature. This is incredibly misleading and disappointing, especially considering that it’s more expensive per person compared to an individual plan. Are there any useful features in “shared workspace” that aren’t available in an individual plan?

Yes the number of messages you can generate per hour is (supposedly) at least double the number of the plus account.

Yep, I got caught up in this as well. The description of Teams specifically describes it as “For fast-moving teams looking to supercharge collaboration” – but now that I’ve signed up, I find I can’t collaborate at all.
Do we have to go back to using one account/login and just share or take turns logging in? That’s quite silly.
I can actually see the option in Manage Workspace > Settings, for sharing chats, but it is tagged with “Enterprise” and is unavailable.
If we don’t have sharing, then I’m not sure what exactly the point is of having a Team or how it helps “to supercharge collaboration”

Kinda bullshit frankly. @openai when can you fix this?

Crazy deceptive. The only way we found to share is to share the link, by copying and sending it to the member of the GPT. Disappointing. We wanted one depository of ideas/content that all could use so that there isn’t redundancy between team members.

Just reiterating how super deceptive this was. Being able to work on the same conversations was THE ONLY REASON I signed up for a teams account. Otherwise it’s just a waste.

I literally just signed up to teams workspace and migrated my personal account believing that shared GPTs are a core component of the offering…
Has anyone found anyway to share your history with a team member?

This is not only misleading or deceptive. It is lying. It is strictly mentioning collaboration and managing workspaces in the pricing tab.
What good is a “shared GPT” ?! Even in the busines-team-version the “share”-button , generating a link ONLY works as long as no images have been uploaded in the chat. The chat must purely consist of text.
Otherwise it will give you this message:
For anyone wondering how to archieve literally shared chats, you have to set up an API key in the open-AI platform (https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/api-keys)
which in turn costs extra, and use a 3rd party platform (like TEAM-GPT, which again costs extra) in which you import the API key, so that multiple users can actually see and work in the same chat and get some other collaboration features.
THIS is what we expect when reading collaboration and workspace!
Our company also thought it would work out of the box. Nope, after buying a business-team account for two users we wasted 70 bucks on that. Good that we didnt buy the 12 month plan. Otherwise we would have straight out send this to our laywers.
Absolute disappointment on our side for OpenAIs product marketing strategy.

Wish we had read this before getting license, but i feel ripped off by openAI the Team license makes it impossible to work as a team. I will end the licenses right away and start looking for other options. Anyone how found a better option?

I am very angry with OpenAI about how they have broken sharing again and again. It’s unethical. We should all be getting refunds. They need to fix this. Otherwise, their customers will hopefully walk away from such abusive treatment and use something else. Got it, OpenAI? If not then you need to get it. And get it soon.
