Organizations

Cloud Feature

Organizations are a Cloud-only feature. Self-hosted Core deployments are single-tenant and do not include multi-user organizations. See Cloud vs Self-Hosted for details.

Organizations let teams collaborate on link management, with separate workspaces, billing, and member access control. Organizations are managed in the LinkForty dashboard. (API keys are scoped to links, analytics, templates, and projects — see Authentication.)

Overview

An organization is a workspace where teams can:

• Create and manage links together
• Share analytics and insights
• Control access with roles and permissions
• Manage billing and subscriptions centrally
• Organize work with projects

Key Concepts:

• Personal Workspace - Your individual account (always exists)
• Organization - Team workspace with multiple members
• Owner - Creates and owns the organization (billing, deletion)
• Members - Team members with assigned roles

Creating an Organization

1. Click your profile menu (top right)
2. Select "Create Organization"
3. Enter an organization name
4. Click "Create"

You're now the organization owner and can invite team members. The organization's URL slug is generated automatically with a random suffix for uniqueness.

Switching Between Organizations

All your work in LinkForty is scoped to the active organization. When you switch organizations, the dashboard shows that org's links, analytics, projects, team members, and settings.

1. Click your profile menu
2. Select "Switch Organization"
3. Choose an organization from the list — the dashboard updates to show its data

Usage and Limits

Each organization has limits based on its subscription tier. View current usage against your limits in Settings → Billing.

Tier	Links	Members	Custom Domains
Free	1,000	3	1
Pro	25,000	10	5
Business	100,000	25	15
Unlimited	Unlimited	Unlimited	Unlimited

For current plan pricing, see the pricing page.

Updating an Organization

Rename your organization or adjust its settings (such as the default attribution window or whether members may invite others) in Settings → Organization. Renaming and settings changes require the Admin or Owner role.

Deleting an Organization

Only the organization owner can delete an organization. Deletion is permanent and removes all links, analytics data, projects, team members, custom domains, and billing.

1. Go to Settings → Organization
2. Scroll to "Danger Zone"
3. Click "Delete Organization"
4. Type the organization name to confirm
5. Click "Delete Permanently"

Common Workflows

Agency Managing Multiple Clients

Create a separate organization for each client for isolated data, billing, and team members:

Personal Workspace (your own projects)
+ Client: Nike
+ Client: Adidas

Benefits: separate billing per client, isolated analytics, client-specific members, and easy context switching.

Company with Multiple Teams

Use one organization with multiple projects rather than separate organizations:

Organization: Acme Corp
├── Project: Marketing Team
├── Project: Product Team
└── Project: Sales Team

Benefits: shared billing, cross-team visibility, and centralized management.

Best Practices

Clear Naming Convention

Good: "Acme Marketing Team", "Client: Nike - Spring Campaign", "Personal - Side Projects"

Avoid: "Org1", "Test", "New Organization"

Monitor Usage

Check Settings → Billing periodically. As you approach a plan limit (links, members, domains), plan an upgrade before you hit it.

Organize with Projects, Not Extra Organizations

Use projects for different campaigns within one organization rather than spinning up separate organizations:

Good:

Organization: Acme Marketing
├── Project: Spring Sale 2024
├── Project: Product Launch
└── Project: Email Campaigns

Avoid: a separate organization per campaign.

Troubleshooting

Can't see an organization's links

• Confirm the correct organization is active (profile menu → Switch Organization)
• Verify you're still a member of that organization

Can't create links (limit reached)

• Check usage in Settings → Billing
• Delete unused links, or upgrade your plan

Can't invite members

• Confirm you have the Admin or Owner role
• Check member usage against your plan limit; upgrade if needed

Lost access to an organization

• Your role may have changed, or you were removed from the organization. Contact the organization owner or an admin.

Security

Access Control

• Role-based permissions — see Roles & Permissions
• 2FA enforcement — require for all members (Unlimited)
• IP whitelisting — restrict access by IP (Unlimited)

Data Isolation

• Data is scoped to each organization — no cross-organization access
• Deleted organizations are fully removed
