Organization and Teams

The organization is the main workspace in Almirant. All projects, members, integrations, and settings belong to an organization. Within the organization, you can manage teams to organize work at a more granular level.

What is an organization​

An organization in Almirant represents your company, team, or working group. It is the top-level container that groups:

  • Projects -- All projects created belong to an organization.
  • Members -- The people who have access to the organization and its projects.
  • Integrations -- Connections to external services (GitHub, Vercel, Telegram).
  • AI Providers -- The provider and quota configuration for artificial intelligence.
  • API Keys -- Access tokens for external integrations and MCP.

Configuring the organization​

To access your organization's settings:

  1. Click on your organization's name in the sidebar.
  2. Select Settings or navigate directly from Settings.

Organization details​

FieldDescriptionRequired
NameOrganization name displayed throughout the platformYes
LogoRepresentative image for the organizationNo
SlugUnique identifier in the organization's URLYes

To update the details:

  1. Go to Settings > General.
  2. Modify the desired fields.
  3. Save the changes.

Member management​

Members are the people who have access to the organization and can work on its projects.

Inviting members​

  1. Go to Settings > Members.
  2. Click Invite member.
  3. Enter the new member's email address.
  4. Select the role they will have in the organization.
  5. Send the invitation.

The member will receive an email with a link to join the organization. If they already have an Almirant account, they will be added directly. If not, they will need to create an account first.

Member roles​

Almirant defines roles to control each member's level of access:

RolePermissions
OwnerFull control over the organization. Can manage members, settings, billing, and delete the organization
AdminCan manage members, projects, integrations, and settings. Cannot delete the organization
MemberCan work on assigned projects, create and edit work items, use AI Planning and agents
Principle of least privilege

Assign the most restrictive role that still allows each member to do their job. Reserve the Owner role for 1-2 people and Admin for team leads.

Viewing active members​

The members list shows:

  • Name and email of each member.
  • Assigned role.
  • Date joined.
  • Invitation status (pending, accepted).

Changing a member's role​

  1. Go to Settings > Members.
  2. Find the member in the list.
  3. Click on the role selector.
  4. Select the new role.
  5. Confirm the change.

Removing a member​

  1. Go to Settings > Members.
  2. Find the member in the list.
  3. Click Remove or the removal icon.
  4. Confirm the removal.
warning

Removing a member revokes their access immediately. Work items assigned to the member will retain the historical assignment, but the member will no longer receive notifications. Reassign active work items before removing the member.

Teams​

Teams allow you to group members within an organization to facilitate work assignment and communication.

Creating a team​

  1. Go to Settings > Teams.
  2. Click Create team.
  3. Set a name for the team (for example: "Frontend", "Backend", "QA").
  4. Add members to the team by selecting them from the organization's member list.
  5. Save the team.

Using teams​

Teams are useful for:

  • Quick assignment -- Assign work items to an entire team instead of individual members.
  • Filtering -- Filter the board by team to see only a specific group's tasks.
  • Visibility -- Quickly understand who belongs to each functional area.

Transferring projects between organizations​

If you have access to multiple organizations, you can transfer projects from one to another. See the project transfer section for more details.
