Organizations and projects

A project is where your team configures repositories, reviews, integrations, and skills. An organization groups projects and people under a shared account.

Your sign-in gives you access to the accounts and projects you belong to. Personal accounts hold your own plan and usage; organizations hold shared membership and account settings. Each project keeps its own review configuration.

Create an organization

Open Organizations, choose Create organization, and enter a name. Then open the organization to manage its members and projects. Creating the organization does not itself start a subscription.

Assign a project

Open the project's Organization settings, choose an organization or your personal account, and select Save organization. You need project management access and permission to manage the relevant accounts. If the current organization must approve a move, the page explains that restriction.

Assigning a project to an organization gives that organization's members inherited project access. Existing explicit project grants are kept. Review the membership of the destination organization before moving a project.

The Doomer organization is separate from a GitHub organization. Moving a project does not change the repository access granted to the GitHub App.

Manage the team

Use organization membership for people who should work across its projects. Use project membership for access to an individual project. See Members and roles.

If billing is enabled, review Billing and usage for the account that owns the project.
