Create an organization

[!INCLUDE version-lt-eq-azure-devops]

Use an organization to connect groups of related projects and help scale up your enterprise. You can use a personal Microsoft account, GitHub account, or a work or school account. Using your work or school account automatically connects your organization to your Microsoft Entra ID.

Note

All organizations must be manually created via the web portal. Automated creation of organizations is not supported. However, we do support automated organization configuration, project creation, and resource provisioning via the REST API.

Prerequisites
