Research direction

Start by reproducing the workspace behavior in ChatGPT for macOS 26.707.72221 with an account that has both Personal and Work workspaces, then compare it with chatgpt.com. Use feedback ID 019f65b6-f3cd-7a93-8507-a03f9a67dbc6 and request logs if needed; done means the app provides a way to select the Personal workspace.

Description

app bug
What version of the Codex App are you using (From “About Codex” dialog)?

ChatGPT for macOS 26.707.72221

What subscription do you have?

ChatGPT Plus with a Work workspace attached to the same OpenAI account.

What platform is your computer?

Apple iMac Darwin 27.0.0 arm64 arm

What issue are you seeing?

My OpenAI account has both a Personal workspace and a ChatGPT Work workspace under the same email address.

The ChatGPT web application allows me to access both workspaces correctly.

However, the latest ChatGPT macOS app (26.707.72221) only opens into the Work workspace.

There is no workspace selector anywhere in the application and no option to switch back to my Personal workspace.

I have:

  • Updated to the latest version
  • Quit and restarted the application
  • Logged out and back in
  • Confirmed both workspaces exist on the web

The problem only exists in the macOS application.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

Feedback ID: 019f65b6-f3cd-7a93-8507-a03f9a67dbc6

What is the expected behavior?
  1. Use a single OpenAI account that has both a Personal workspace and a ChatGPT Work workspace.
  2. Install ChatGPT for macOS 26.707.72221.
  3. Sign in.
  4. The application opens directly into the Work workspace.
  5. There is no option anywhere to switch to the Personal workspace.

The same account works correctly on chatgpt.com.

Additional information

I'm happy to test a fix or provide logs if required.
