Organization and User Management

Membership

User membership in Sentry is handled at the organizational level. The system is designed so each user has a single Sentry account, which can then join one or more organizations. Each user should have their own account, where they can manage their personal preferences, including notification and security settings.

Open Membership

Open membership is enabled by default, which allows members to join, leave, and add other members to teams.

Restricting Access

  • Access to a Project is limited to the Team that owns the project. However, with open membership, members can join and add members to teams.
  • To further restrict access to a Project, you can control access to Teams by making them accessible only through invitation by a Manager, Owner, or Admin.

To restrict Team access, go to Organization Settings and flip the “Open Membership” toggle.

Transferring a Project

To transfer a project go to the target project's Project Settings >> General Settings >> Transfer Project. Enter the email of the organization's owner you wish to transfer it to, and they'll receive an email to approve the transfer. When the project is transferred to the new organization, it's recommended to add it to a team for better visibility.

Removing an Organization

It is possible to remove an organization and all associated organization data completely. Doing so will not remove user accounts, but will remove their membership in the organization.

To remove an organization visit the Organizations General Settings and locate the "Remove Organization" panel. Clicking the "Remove Organization" button will prompt you for confirmation. After removing an organization, it will be queued for deletion.
