Is there an api to get the path of the current .sublime-workspace file?
Is there an api to delete a .sublime-workspace file?
Is there an api to load a .sublime-workspace file?
Is there an api to "Save Workspace As..."?
Is there an api to "Quick Switch Workspace"?
Is there an api to list available Quick Switch Workspaces?

I'd like to be able to get a Sublime Text 3 window's active .sublime-workspace file too.

Currently there is no way to anticipate a Sublime Text 3 window's title bar since the workspace name is used on it. Usually that's the same as the project name but if the project has >1 workspaces then it's not and there's no way to get the workspace filename.

Not currently.

Is there an api to delete a .sublime-workspace file?

No, the file can just be delete from disk. If the user wishes to remove all recent project/workspace files they can execute clear_recent_projects_and_workspaces. There is no way to remove an individual entry.

Is there an api to load a .sublime-workspace file?

There are three commands:

• prompt_open_project_or_workspace replaces the existing project/workspace
• prompt_switch_project_or_workspace opens the project/workspace in a new window
• prompt_select_workspace uses the Quick Switch Project

Is there an api to "Save Workspace As..."?

No, there is a command: save_workspace_as.

Is there an api to "Quick Switch Workspace"?

No, there is a command: prompt_select_workspace.

Is there an api to list available Quick Switch Workspaces?

No.

Given the nature of this issue, it's hard to see a particular request or use case for the questions, making believe this is more of a support nature than a feature request. Most referenced issues are also concerned of the resulting window title moreso than the workspace file itself.

I think a function to retrieve the current workspace file like window.project_file_name() is reasonable, but beyond that this issue has been mostly answered above.

t I think asking for an API for these items is to avoid being prompted. I couldn't find a way to load a workspace/project via python without being prompted. My intention is to have 4 or so hot keys that I can easily switch between workspaces/projects.

A command for this will be available in the next dev cycle

Is this issue still relevant?

Window.workspace_file_name was added in Sublime Text 4.
