What is an Organization?

An Innoslate organization is a collection of projects, users, teams, and user roles. These organizational sandboxes generally serve as representations of a company, business unit, or team.

Each organization is assigned a unique URL slug, name, and optional description. Moreover, it has its dedicated database that is isolated from other organizations. Furthermore, there is a roster of users who are authorized to access that specific organization. These users are granted access and supervised by an organizational administrator.

Expanding on the Layer Diagram from the Concepts Page, you'll see the organizational structure mentioned above in the Layer Diagram below with users, projects and a team .

Within an organization, organizational administrators have the ability to configure teams, modify or add custom roles, control user access, and assign user licenses. When adding a user to an organization, you have the option to grant them organizational roles which include Admin, Member, or Reviewer. Granting a user an Admin role provides them with access to the organization's Admin Dashboard, allowing them to administer the organization's users and access all projects created within the organization. Members of an organization can create projects and view projects that have been shared with them. Reviewers of an organization, on the other hand, cannot create projects but are able to view, comment on, and submit change requests for shared projects.

For more information on managing your organization, please refer to the Administrator's Guide.

3.   Once in your desired organization, click on the name of the project you want to view
(if one is created). 

⚠️ To easily access another organization that you have access to, users may also simply enter the URL in your browser's address bar. For instance, you can directly go to the dashboard of that organization on Innoslate Cloud by using the following link and entering the organization's URL slug where it specifies "organizationname": 'www.cloud.innoslate.com/organizationname/dashboard'
