Organizations
Your Datost workspace — the tenant boundary for data sources, people, and dashboards.
An organization is your Datost workspace. It's the tenant boundary: every data source, credential, dashboard, Slack response, scheduled report, and teammate lives inside exactly one org. When Datost answers a question in Slack or the web app, it does so in the context of one org's data and one org's people.
Creating an organization
When you sign up for Datost, we create an org for you automatically using your company name. You become its first admin.
Sign up at datost.com
Sign in with Google or your work email. Datost uses your email domain to decide what happens next.
Land in an existing org (auto-join)
If your domain is already claimed by an org that has auto-join enabled, you'll be dropped straight into it as a member.
Or create a new one
If no org claims your domain, Datost creates a fresh org named after your company and makes you admin.
Inviting members
Admins invite teammates by email from Settings → Members. Invitees get an email, set a password (or sign in with Google), and land directly in the org as a member.
Domain auto-join
Each org can claim one or more email domains (like acme.com). When a new user signs up with a matching email address, Datost checks the domain and either:
- Auto-joins them to the org as a member, or
- Routes them to request access if auto-join is off.
A domain can only belong to one org at a time. Admins manage claimed domains under Settings → Domains.
Access requests
When someone signs up with a matching domain that isn't set to auto-join — or clicks a Slack response or dashboard link they don't yet have access to — Datost creates a pending access request. Admins see these in Settings → Access requests and can approve or reject them. Approved requests turn into a membership immediately.
Switching organizations
If you belong to more than one org (for example, you consult for two companies using Datost), use the org switcher in the top-left of the web app to move between them. Slack responses, dashboards, and data sources all reload for the org you've switched into.
Org-level settings
Admins configure the whole workspace from Settings:
- General — name, slug, and workspace branding.
- Members & roles — invite teammates, set admin vs. member, assign custom roles.
- Domains — claim domains, toggle auto-join.
- Access requests — review pending join requests.
- Data sources — connect warehouses and databases.
- Billing — plan, seats, and Stripe.
- BYOK — bring your own Anthropic or OpenAI key for enterprise plans.
