# Manage your organization

> Create an organization, switch between organizations, and understand the tenant boundary

An **organization** is your tenant boundary in Novacula. Everything you create — executors, nodes, API keys, members, audit log — lives inside exactly one organization. People in one organization cannot see or change anything in another.

You belong to one organization at a time. The exception is the platform-level system admin, who can move between organizations — see [Roles and permissions](/docs/platform/roles-and-permissions).

## Create your organization

After you sign up and sign in for the first time, you land on the **Create organization** screen. Fill in:

* **Name** — the display name shown across the dashboard.
* **Slug** — a short, URL-safe identifier (lowercase letters, digits, and dashes). It's suggested automatically from the name; edit it if you like.

Select **Create organization** to finish. You become its **owner** and are taken to the dashboard.

You can also join an existing organization instead of creating one: when someone invites you by email, accepting the invite adds you as a member with the role they chose. See [Members and invitations](/docs/account/members-and-invitations).

<Note>
  You can **own** only one organization. You can be a member of others (by invitation), but the **New organization** action is available only if you don't already own one.
</Note>

## Switch the active organization

If you belong to more than one organization, switch between them from the account menu:

1. Open the **account menu** — the avatar button in the top-right corner of the dashboard.
2. Under **Organization**, pick the one you want. A check mark marks your current organization.

Everything reloads for the organization you selected — the node list, executors, API keys, and the rest all re-read from the new tenant immediately.

To start your own organization, the same menu shows **New organization** (only when you don't already own one). Creating it switches you into it straight away.

## Roles

Within each organization, a member holds exactly one role — owner, admin, or member — which decides what they can see and change there. Roles are scoped per organization, so the same person can hold different roles in different organizations — an owner in one, a member in another. Inviting people, changing roles, and removing members all happen on the **Members** page. See [Members and invitations](/docs/account/members-and-invitations) and [Roles and permissions](/docs/platform/roles-and-permissions) for what each role can do.

## Audit log

Every change inside the organization — member changes, executor and node lifecycle actions, and more — is recorded in the **Audit log**. Owners and admins open it from **Audit log** in the sidebar; members see only their own activity, on their profile page. See [Audit log](/docs/audit/audit-log).
