I think this is not a blocker.

@luacmartins The workspaces displayed in the list are only those available in Onyx. I think we need to implement an API read command to fetch the workspaces when this page is opened.

[MariaHCD]

Makes sense that this shouldn't block the deploy 👍🏼

I'll defer to @luacmartins about how we want to handle this follow up improvement.

Assigning myself as we are handling this project with Carlos

@rayane-d All policies are loaded during OpenApp, I am not sure if this would be the RCA

[trjExpensify]

All workspaces are shown in the selection page

Agreed, albeit a bit of a edge case thing to do mid "change workspace".

[luacmartins]

I agree that all the policies should be available in Onyx via OpenApp. I'm also unable to reproduce this. I just see the transaction thread when I'm navigated to the Desktop app, no Change workspace RHP. I'm gonna close this since as @trjExpensify mentioned, it's an edge case.
