Organizations - default view

Note

Ansible Tower 2.2 creates a default organization automatically. Users of older versions of Tower will not see this default organization.

A default organization has been automatically created and is available to all users of Ansible Tower. It can be used as is or edited later as needed.

For the purpose of this Quick Start Guide, leave the default organization as is and click Save.

Organizations - default expanded

Note

If you are using Ansible Tower with a Basic license, you must use the default organization. Only Enterprise or Premium Tower licenses have the ability to add new organizations beyond the default.

To edit the default organization later, expand its ‘Properties’ and enter the appropriate details. Then, click Save.

Enterprise and Premium Tower license users who want to add a new organization should refer to the Organizations section in the Tower User Guide.
