Managing Organization

In Apidog, an organization is used to centrally manage multiple teams and members. With organizations, you can control permissions, assign roles, and ensure efficient collaboration across your company.

Creating an Organization

You can create one or more organizations. To create a new organization:

In the main window, click Organizations from the left navigation panel to open the organization management page.

Click the + New Organization button at the buttom left.

Enter the organization name.

Click Create. And your new organization is now set up.

Organization Members and Roles

You can invite members into your organization and assign them different roles:

Org Admin: Has the highest permissions (except the org owner). Can manage organization members, teams, and organization settings.

Org Member: Can join the organization and its teams, and collaborate on projects. Cannot change organization settings.

Inviting members into the organization:

Go toMembersunder your organization.

ClickInvite, enter their emails to send an invitation, or share the invite link.

With the Enterprise plan, you can also use custom project roles to control what project members can do.

Relation Between Organizations and Teams

Organization: The highest-level management unit, representing a company or large group. It manages multiple teams.

Teams: A sub-unit within an organization, usually a department or smaller group. It manages multiple projects.

Organization vs. Team — Which Should You Choose?

When using Apidog, a common question is: should you manage everything directly under an Organization, or mainly rely on Teams? The answer really comes down to two things — team size and business scope.

If your team is small and focused

Say you’ve got around ten people all working on the same product line. In that case, a single Team is more than enough. A Team can handle projects, APIs, and members in one place — simple and efficient, without the extra overhead of an Organization.

If your company is large and spread out

If you’ve got lots of people and multiple, unrelated business lines, it’s best to create an Organization first, then set up separate Teams inside it for each business area. Each Team manages its own projects and members, with clear boundaries and no overlap.

Updating Organization Info

Admins can update the organization's name or details from Settings. All members will see the updated info.

Transferring the Organization

The organization owner can transfer ownership to another member via Organization Settings → Danger Zone→ Transfer.

Dismissing the Organization

The organization owner can permanently delete the organization underOrganization Settings → Danger Zone → Dismiss Organization.
