    • Use letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, and underscores
    • Keep it descriptive and memorable
  3. Click Create

Organization Name Guidelines#

✓ Use clear, descriptive names
✓ Include context (e.g., "Production US-East" instead of just "Prod")
✓ Keep it concise but meaningful
✗ Avoid special characters or very long names

Organization Regions#

Regions determine where your organization's resources are deployed. Common regions include:

  • US-West - United States West Coast
  • EU-Central - European Region
  • APAC - Asia-Pacific Region

You can see the region on each organization card.

Default Organization#

Your first organization is automatically set as the default. This is where new resources are created by default.

You can identify the default organization by the "Default Organization" badge on the card.

Organization Member Count#

The organization card displays:
