Manage primary organizations


# Manage primary organizations

If you have a B2C (Business-to-Consumer) platform offering services to direct consumers, you can use an Asgardeo organization to manage the identities and access requirements of your users. Note that your first organization on Asgardeo is created when you sign up to Asgardeo.

If you have a B2B platform, this will also be the primary organization of your platform. Your primary organization will work with other businesses to make your applications available to their users. Such businesses should be defined as organizations in your primary organization.

The following guides explain how you can create and manage these organizations in Asgardeo.

# Create a new organization

To create a new organization in Asgardeo:

  1. Select the organization list and click New Organization. Create new organization
  2. Enter a name for your organization and click Create. Create guardio organization
