Your team and organizations

An Autonoma account can belong to several organizations. Which one you are working in is a property of your browser session, not of your account.

Two ways into an organization

By email domain. If you signed up with a company address - you@acme.com - your organization is keyed to acme.com. Anyone who signs in with an @acme.com address joins it automatically, with no invitation and nothing for you to configure. Colleagues just sign in.

By invitation. If you signed up with a personal address, or through the Vercel Marketplace, there is no shared domain to match on, so nobody can reach your organization on their own. That is what invitations are for.

Settings → Members is available either way. On a domain-matched organization, inviting somebody who would join automatically is refused with an explanation - but you can still invite a contractor or consultant whose address is on a different domain, and it is where you leave an organization you no longer want to be in.

Sending an invitation

  1. Open Settings, then Members under Organization settings.
  2. Choose Invite member and enter their email address.
  3. They get an email with a link to review the invitation. It expires after 7 days.

Inviting the same address twice does not create a second invitation - it refreshes the existing one and re-sends it, so any link you have already shared keeps working.

Every member can see and change every application in the organization, and any member can invite others. There are no per-application permissions or roles yet.

If the email does not arrive

Each pending invitation has a Copy link button. The link is the whole invitation, so you can send it over Slack or anywhere else if mail is delayed or filtered. Revoking an invitation invalidates the link immediately.

Accepting an invitation

The link asks the invitee to sign in, then to confirm.

Joining is additive. If they already use Autonoma they keep every organization they were already in - the new one is added alongside. Nothing they had access to before is affected.

An invitation can only be accepted by the address it was sent to. If they are signed in as somebody else, the page says which address to use rather than silently doing nothing.

Belonging to more than one

Two places let you move between organizations:

  • The organization name in the account menu becomes a menu once you belong to more than one. Open it from the button at the right-hand end of the top bar.
  • After signing in, you are asked which organization to start in. With only one you go straight through and never see the question.

Switching applies to that browser - two browsers can sit in two different organizations at the same time. Your most recent choice is remembered, so signing in again starts you back where you left off rather than in whichever organization you joined first.

Naming your organization

If you signed up with a personal address, your organization is initially named after you - because you were the first person through the door, not necessarily because it is yours. The first time you sign in you are asked to name it, with your own name prefilled so keeping it is one click.

You can change it later under Settings → Members → Your organizations → Rename. Organizations created from a company email domain are already named after the domain and are never asked.

Leaving an organization

Under Settings → Members, the Your organizations panel lists everything your account belongs to, and each row has a Leave.

Leaving drops only your own membership. The other members keep theirs, and any of them can invite you back.

Two cases are refused, and the reason is shown on the disabled button:

Refused whenWhy
It is your only organizationAn account with no organization cannot reach anything. Join another first.
You are its last memberNobody would be left who could reach its applications, and no one could ever be granted access again. Invite someone else first.

To hand an organization over, invite the new owner, wait for them to accept, then leave.

Removing someone else

On the Members panel, choose the remove icon on their row. They lose access to every application in this organization but keep their Autonoma account and any other organizations they belong to, and can be invited back.

You cannot remove yourself - use Leave instead, which enforces the two guards above.

Their API keys

An API key authenticates against the organization, not against the person who created it, so removing someone does not stop their keys working. That is deliberate: a key created by a teammate is often the credential in your CI, and revoking it the moment they leave would break a pipeline that has nothing to do with them.

The remove dialog therefore lists every API key that member created here, with when each was last used, and lets you choose which to delete. Nothing is selected by default; Select all takes the lot. A key last used minutes ago is almost certainly wired into something that is still running, so mint a replacement and swap it in before deleting.

Whatever you keep stays visible on Settings -> API keys, badged Owner left, and anyone in the organization can delete it there later. Treat that badge as a rotation reminder: the person who holds that key’s secret is no longer in your organization.
