Set up organization

Organizations in Polars Cloud are the top-level entity and typically represent a company. They can have members, contain multiple workspaces and are used to manage billing.

When you create your account, Polars Cloud creates an organization called <first name>'s organization with a workspace called My workspace for you, so you can start running queries right away. Before you invite your team, the dashboard asks you to give the workspace a name of its own; invitees see it in their invitation email. Rename the organization from Organization → Settings.

Organization names are not unique. If you are a member of several organizations that share a name, refer to them by ID in the Python client (pc.Organization(id=...)) or rename one of them.

To set up an additional organization you can either use the dashboard or the following CLI command:

pc organization setup

To add a workspace to it, use pc workspace create (see the CLI reference) or the dashboard.

For other subcommands you can execute the help command:

pc organization --help 

usage: pc organization [-h] [-v] [-t TOKEN] [-p TOKEN_PATH] {list,setup,delete,details} ...

positional arguments:
  {list,setup,delete,details}
    list                List all active organizations
    setup               Set up an organization
    delete              Delete an organization
