HashiCorp Cloud Platform
Organizations
Organizations are parent-level entities in HCP that contain one or more projects, and each project contains resources including HashiCorp Virtual Networks (HVN) and server clusters. Users can be a member of multiple organizations if invited by the admin of other organizations. However, you can only create and own one organization for your HCP account. An organization can have up to 10 projects.
This page describes how to create and manage an organization in HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP).
Create an organization
Note
When you sign up for a HashiCorp Cloud Platform (HCP) account for the first time, the HCP Portal takes you to the create organization page where you can specify the name and country of your organization. Once your organization is ready, you can proceed to invite users to your organization or start creating HCP resources.
To create an organization:
- Log into your account and choose Organizations from the menu.
- Click Create organization and specify a name and region. The name should adhere to the following rules: it must contain between 3 and 40 characters, and it may include ASCII letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores. The name also must be unique — if another organization is already using the name, you will be asked to choose a different one.
- Click Save.
After you create an organization, you can invite users.
