Understanding Single-Seat & Multi-Seat Organization Accounts and Permissions

Overview

When an Appflow account is created, it is assigned to a single-seat organization with the name “[YOUR_NAME]’s Appflow”. that is considered your personal workspace for creating new apps.

When upgrading to a Basic plan or above, this single-seat organization will be converted into a multi-seat organization. A multi-seat organization workspace extends the function of a single-seat organization by introducing the option to invite new members to the organization and assign them to teams. 

As the administrator for this organization, the account can invite new members to develop apps together under one workspace.

Switching between organization workspaces

If an account is associated with multiple organizations, an icon will appear in the left-hand side of the dashboard that can be clicked to show a list of organizations associated with this account. Clicking an item in this list will direct the account to the workspace for that organization.

Roles and permissions within a multi-seat organization

There are two roles within a multi-seat organization: members and admins.
