Organizations#

An organization is a group of Anaconda Cloud accounts with a managed set of rights and permissions. Creating an organization for your team in Anaconda Cloud allows you to:

  • Provide a common collaboration space

  • Ensure consistent tooling

  • Manage access and costs

Note

Anaconda Cloud users can create and belong to multiple organizations.

Creating an organization#

  1. Open the user dropdown menu and select Organizations.

  2. Click Form New Organization.

  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your organization. Don’t worry if you don’t have all the necessary information; you can come back and complete your organization’s information at a later time.

    Note

    • As the creator, you are the owner and default admin of the organization.

    • The Organization Name is the publicly displayed name of your organization and can be changed at any time after it is created.

    • The Organization ID is the organization’s Uniform Resource Locator (URL) identifier. The Organization’s URL must be unique. Once the Organization ID is assigned, it cannot be changed.

Subscribing your organization#

For information and help with managing subscriptions, see Subscriptions.

Managing large organizations#

Manually adding members to your organization via the UI can be tedious when your user base numbers in the hundreds or more. Expedite the process using the Anaconda Cloud API to add users to your organization, assign them a seat, and issue them a token.
