Organization Management Overview

When you create your Mezmo account, Mezmo automatically creates and assigns you to a new Organization. This Organization comes with a 30-day trial and an auto-generated ingestion key which you can use to send logs to Mezmo for storage and analysis.

You can be a member of many Organizations, but can only view one organization at a time. Your current active organization is shown at the bottom of the left-hand navigation pane in the web app. Click the name of the organization to open the Manage Organizations menu.

Create an Organization

1. Click the organization name. Then All Organizations You'll see a list of all the organizations you're a member of.
2. Then click Create a new organization.

Delete an Organization

Deleting an Organization will purge the Organization from Mezmo. This includes the Organization’s logs, billing data, and customizations. This is only available for administrators.

1. Switch to the Organization in the Mezmo web app.
2. Navigate to Settings > Organization > General, then scroll down to Deactivate Account.

Creating an Organization automatically makes you the owner of the Organization. Organization owners can invite users to join or make the Organization discoverable to certain users.
