Get workspace features

GET/api/v2/workspaces/{slug}/features/

Read the workspace's feature flags. There is one feature record per workspace, so this returns a single object rather than a list.

Call it during client start-up. is_work_item_types_enabled tells you which surface accepts work item type and property writes, and the remaining flags tell you which parts of your UI or sync to show.

Path parameters

slug:requiredstring

The workspace slug. It appears in your Plane URLs. In https://app.plane.so/my-team/projects/, the slug is my-team.

Query parameters

None. This endpoint does not support filters, pagination, or ?expand=.

Scopes

workspaces.features:read

Errors

Status	Code	Cause
401	unauthorized	Missing or invalid credentials.
402	payment_required	The feature this endpoint belongs to isn't enabled on your plan, or is switched off.
403	forbidden	Your role or token scope can't read this workspace's features.
404	not_found	No such workspace, or it's outside your tenant.
406	not_acceptable	The Accept header asks for a representation the API can't produce.
429	rate_limited	Throttled. Honor the Retry-After header before retrying.

This is the mode check

is_work_item_types_enabled: true means the workspace manages work item types at the workspace level, and false means each project does. Writes sent to the other surface return 409, with work_item_types_managed_at_workspace or work_item_types_managed_at_project. Reads are not affected. See Work item type modes.

Cache it, but not forever

The flags rarely change, so you can cache the response for the life of a request batch. Re-read it whenever a write returns 409 work_item_types_managed_at_workspace or work_item_types_managed_at_project. That code means your cached mode is stale.
