Organizations & Teams
Organizations are the foundation of The Task. Each organization has its own projects, tickets, and team members, with complete data isolation between organizations.
Understanding Organizations
An organization represents a company, client, or team workspace. Key concepts:
- Data Isolation — Each organization's data is completely separate
- Multiple Memberships — Users can belong to multiple organizations
- Role-Based Access — Each user has a specific role within each organization
- Easy Switching — Switch between organizations from the sidebar
Creating an Organization
During Registration
When you first register, an organization is automatically created:
- 1. Go to the registration page
- 2. Enter your organization name
- 3. Complete the registration
- 4. You become the organization administrator
Creating Additional Organizations
Already have an account? You can create more organizations:
- 1. Log out of your current session
- 2. Go to the registration page
- 3. Use your existing email and current password
- 4. Enter the new organization name
- 5. You'll be added as an admin to the new organization
Important: You must use your correct password when creating a new organization with an existing email. This ensures only account owners can create organizations under their account.
Switching Between Organizations
If you belong to multiple organizations, you can switch between them:
- 1. Look for the organization dropdown in the sidebar (below the logo)
