Organization Settings

What an organization is

An organization is the top-level container in Kenseme. Everything you build lives inside one: schemas, Pipelines, ontologies and their bindings, glossaries, processes, attributes, labels, connections, and the people who work on them. Nothing crosses from one organization to another.

In the app: Settings › Organization Settings

Why organizations exist

  • Isolation. Each organization’s content is kept apart from every other organization’s. A person who belongs to two organizations sees only the one they’re working in.
  • A clean boundary. Use separate organizations for separate companies, customers, or business units that should never share models.
  • One plan, one team. Your plan, seats, and AI usage allowance belong to the organization. See Plans and pricing.

What belongs to an organization

  • Schemas and everything in them, plus star schema plans and Pipelines.
  • Ontologies, their versions, bindings, and sync history.
  • Glossaries, processes and process documents, and the industry standards you’ve imported.
  • Custom attribute groups and definitions, and labels.
  • Saved database connections and Fabric credentials.
  • Members, their roles, and pending invitations.
  • Background jobs that ran for any of the above.

What doesn’t

  • Your personal account (name, email, time zone). See Edit your account profile.
  • Sign-in itself.
  • System Administration, the cross-organization area used by Macula staff.

Organization Settings at a glance

Organization Settings is where an organization admin runs the organization. It opens from the sidebar under Settings and is only listed if you hold the Admin role. The page has these tabs:

Tab What it’s for Page
Users Members, their roles, and pending invitations. Manage users, Invite people
Labels Colored labels you attach to schemas. Organization labels
Data Model Organization name and domain, plus default naming conventions for schemas. Organization-wide settings
Ontologies Ontology naming convention and default Base IRI. Ontology settings
External Credentials Links to Fabric Credentials and Database Connections. Fabric credentials, Database connections
Background Jobs Long-running work for this organization from the last day. Where to watch background jobs
Schema Imports Every schema import, with cancel and resume. Watch import progress
Features Optional features you switch on for the organization. Feature flags
Agents Settings for the Data Agent. Organization-wide settings
Outgoing Emails Every email Kenseme sent on the organization’s behalf. Review outgoing emails

Tip: Each tab has its own address, such as /organization/admin?tab=users or ?tab=jobs. Bookmark the one you use most.

Billing lives on its own page, Settings › Billing & Plan. See Manage your plan and billing.

When the organization is read-only

If the organization has been made read-only, for example because a payment is past due, Organization Settings shows a banner at the top and the buttons that change anything are disabled. You can still look at everything. See Account states and read-only mode.

Switching organizations

If you belong to more than one organization, switch between them from the header. See Switch between organizations.
