+= URL parameter for the existing workspace name
+
+If you start a new workspace with a URL that contains the `existing` URL parameter specifying an existing workspace name, the existing workspace created from the same URL is opened.
+
+.Example
+
+====
+
+`pass:c,a,q[{prod-url}]#<git_repository_url>?existing=workspace_name`
+
+====
+
+When specifying the `existing` URL parameter, following situations may arise:
+
+* If there is no workspace created from the same URL, a new workspace is created.
+
+* If the specified existing workspace name matches an existing workspace created from the same URL and the existing workspace is opened.
+
+* If the specified existing workspace name does not match any existing workspaces, a warning appears and you need to select one of the following actions:
+ ** Create a new workspace.
+ ** Select an existing workspace to open.
+
+[NOTE]
+====
+To create multiple workspaces from the same URL, you can use the `new` URL parameter:
+[source,subs="+quotes,+attributes,+macros"]
