# Define intake and risk forms

> Define the intake questions and risk dimensions that projects use across your workspace

Your workspace owns two governance definitions:

* The **intake form** organizes questions into sections. Each project answers
  those questions during registration or from its **Lifecycle** page.
* The **risk template** defines the categories and dimensions used to assess
  each project's risk.

Project name, description, owner, and tags remain project properties. They
appear in a fixed **Project details** card before the workspace-defined intake
sections and cannot be added as intake fields.

## Define workspace forms

Open **Settings › Governance**, then use the **Intake** and **Risk** tabs.
Workspace admins can start from the **Openlayer template** or from scratch,
organize intake fields into sections, and define risk dimensions and their
descriptions. Workspace members can view these definitions but cannot edit
them.

Openlayer warns you before leaving a tab or page with unsaved changes. A
workspace has no form until an admin defines one; until then, projects show an
empty state on **Lifecycle**.

## Edit forms after projects respond

Removing a field or risk dimension does not erase recorded data. Openlayer
retains historical answers and scores so they remain resolvable.

See [Project lifecycle](/docs/governance/project-lifecycle) to learn where project
teams answer intake questions and assess risk.
