Join or leave an Organization

An Organization is your home base in CloudCannon, bringing together your Sites, Team Members, and shared resources. You can belong to more than one Organization at a time, so joining one doesn't affect any others you're already a member of.

Join an Organization#

To join an Organization in CloudCannon, an existing member must invite you. When someone invites you, CloudCannon will send you an email invitation with the name of the Organization.

When you accept the invitation, CloudCannon will add you to the Organization as a Team Member, automatically assigning you to the Permission Groups selected by the person who invited you. You can also decline an invitation, but a current member of the Organization must re-invite you if you want to join at a later date.

How you accept your invitation will depend on whether you already have a CloudCannon account.

If you don't have a CloudCannon account yet

To create your account and accept an invitation:

1. In your email invitation, click the Sign up for CloudCannon button. CloudCannon will open in your internet browser.
2. Complete the account creation setup. CloudCannon will open the Organizations page.
3. Click the Accept button next to the Organization you want to join.

CloudCannon will add you to the Organization.

CloudCannon shows any Organization that has invited you under the You've been invited heading on the Organizations page. Each invitation shows the Organization's name, who invited you, and when, along with Accept and Decline buttons.

If you don't recognize any of the invitations, you can click the Create Your Own Organization button to start your own Organization instead.

If you already have a CloudCannon account

When you have pending invitations, CloudCannon shows a number badge on your Avatar in the bottom left of the App Sidebar.

To accept an invitation from another Organization while you're logged in:

1. Click on your Avatar in the App Sidebar to open the Account Menu.
2. Select Pending invitations to open the Pending invitations modal.
3. Click the Accept button next to the Organization you want to join.

CloudCannon will add you to the Organization.

Leave an Organization#

To leave an Organization in CloudCannon:

1. Navigate to the My Permissions page under Org Settings.
2. Click the Leave Organization button in the top right.
3. Click the Leave Organization button in the confirmation modal to confirm.

CloudCannon will remove you from this Organization.
