Manage Your Organization

Your Epicenter organization is where you host your projects and manage your admin team and users.

In an organization, you can create team projects that require authentication. That means you can give each end user their own username and password so only authorized people can access your application.

An admin can have one of two roles:

  • AUTHOR: can manage the organization, create and edit projects, and perform SUPPORT tasks.
  • SUPPORT: can manage workshops and users.

By default, an Epicenter account admin cannot have the same username as a user. You can change this in account settings.
