Axure Cloud Organizations
Organizations in Axure Cloud allow you and your team to organize all of your workspaces (which contain your projects) in one place. You can be a member of multiple organizations, whether by joining someone else’s organization, or creating additional organizations.
Managing Organizations
Creating Organizations
Click Create Organization at the bottom of the left-side panel.
Give the organization a name.
Optionally include the email addresses of anyone you would like to invite to the organization, and set their system role.
Renaming an Organization
Click the settings icon next to the organization’s name on the left-side panel
Select Settings from the context menu
On the settings page, click Edit next to the organization’s current name.
Leaving Organizations
If you no longer need to be a member of an organization and access any of its workspaces and projects, you can leave an organization.
Click the settings icon next to the organization’s name on the left-side panel
Select Settings from the context menu
On the settings page, click the Leave Organization button
If you are the super admin of the organization, you will be prompted to pick a new super admin from the list of current organization members.
Note
You can not leave an organization if you are the only member.
Deleting Organizations
Warning
Deleting the organization will permanently delete all of its workspaces, projects, and disband users. This action cannot be undone.
The super admin of an organization can delete the organization by navigating to the organization settings page, and clicking the Delete Organization button. Then, in the dialog that appears, select the confirmation box, enter the organization’s name, and click Delete Organization.
Sharing Organizations with Others
You can share access to your organization and the workspaces within it with other Axure Cloud users. You can give them full access to all of the workspaces within the organization, or you can restrict their system role to guest so that they can only join workspaces they are invited to.
Inviting Users
To invite users to join your organization:
Click the settings icon next to the organization name
Select Users from the context menu
On the settings page, click the Add User button
Enter the email address(es) of the user(s) you would like to invite to join the organization
Assign their System Role from the dropdown, and then click Add Users
Organization System Roles
When you invite users to join your organization, you can determine what level of access they have when you assign their system role. There are four system roles: Guest, Member, Admin, and Super Admin.
Guest | Member | Admin | Super Admin | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Access workspaces they are invited to | ||||
Create and join any workspace | ||||
Manage members and guests | ||||
Manage admins | ||||
Manage all system settings, users, and workspaces |
Guest
Guest accounts can:
- join workspaces they are invited to
- participate in [project discussions][discussions]
Note
Guests can still be given edit access to the workspaces they are invited to, since that is determined by their workspace permissions and not their organization system role.
Member
Member accounts can do everything guests can do. In addition, they can:
- create new workspaces and invite other users to join them
- view and join any workspace that exists within the organization
- manage other members and guests
Note
For teams using Axure Cloud for Business, member accounts cannot manage other members.
Admin
Admin accounts can do everything members can do. In addition, they can:
- manage other admins, as well as members and guests
- manage all workspaces
Super Admin
The super admin is the primary administrator. They can do everything admins can do, as well as:
- manage all system settings, users, and workspaces
- delete the organization
Changing System Roles
To change a user’s system role, click the settings icon next to the organization’s name and select Users from the context menu. Under the System Role column on the Users page, click the dropdown menu to select a system role.
Workspaces
Workspaces are what contain your Axure RP published prototypes and Axure Cloud artboard projects. All users in your organization who have been invited as a member or admin can view and join any workspace within the organization. Guests in your organization can only access the workspaces that they have been invited to join.
Note
For teams with an Axure Cloud for Business instance, workspaces within your Cloud instance’s organization can be set to Invite Only.
Workspace Organization Access
Members of a workspace (regardless of whether they have joined the organization) can have either View Only or Can Edit workspace permissions when they are invited to join a workspace.
You can also determine the permission level of the workspace for members of your organization who have the ability to join a workspace on their own. To do so:
Open the workspace and click the Invite button or a member icon at the top of the page
Under Organization Access in the dialog that appears, choice View Only or Can Edit from the dropdown menu
Note
Changing the organization access permissions for a workspace will not affect the permissions of users who are already in the workspace, and will only affect users who join in the future. The owner of a workspace can also change the permissions of any user at any time.
