Set access policies for an organization

This is an advanced feature that is only available on the Kinde Scale plan. You can apply policies for 5 orgs, and then charges apply.

You can set policies for an organization to control access to the organization. When you set policies for an organization, this overrides any policies set at the environment level.

This topic provides instructions for the following tasks:

• Allow anyone to join the organization
• Only allow users from specific domains to sign in to the organization (i.e. apply domain restrictions for an organization)
• When users from specific domains sign up, add them as members to this organization
• Assign specific roles to new members of an organization

You may need to activate some features as you go.
