Workspaces are only accessible by certain specific IP addresses. When you first created your workspace, this is the IP address that was recorded. If you try to access your workspace with a different IP address (for example, if you created the workspace at home, then went to a coffee shop), you will need to update the IP addresses that are allowed to connect to your workspace. We can do this by updating the “CIDR block” section of the workspace configurations.
Click “Edit CIDRs”
Click “Add My IP” for each section and then click “Submit”.
GIC BCH users: Do not click "Add My IP" instead, type the same IP address into the box, changing the last two digits from "/32" to "/24" and click submit.
You can add a maximum of 5 IP addresses to this section. If necessary, remove older IP addresses.
You may need to stop & restart your workspace, refresh the page, and wait a couple of minutes for the changes to take effect.
