1.2.2 Organizations — Internal Structure and Ownership
Within each tenant, Praisma Hub supports one or more organizations. Organizations define the internal structure of a tenant and are used to model ownership, responsibility, and governance within that tenant’s environment.
Where a tenant represents the external contractual boundary (for example a municipality or agency), organizations represent the internal operational units that exist within that tenant.
Purpose of Organizations
Organizations exist to reflect real-world structures such as:
Municipal departments
Policy teams or editorial groups
Communication or content teams
External agencies working within a tenant
Internal business units within a larger organization
By modeling these structures explicitly, Praisma Hub enables clear ownership of content, responsibilities, and access rights without compromising tenant-level isolation.
Organizational Ownership Model
Each organization within a tenant has:
A clearly defined owner or owning role
Its own set of users and role assignments
Ownership over specific content, media, or workflows
Scoped access to modules and features where applicable
Organizations do not bypass tenant boundaries. All organizations remain fully contained within their parent tenant and cannot access data outside of it.
This ownership model allows large tenants to distribute responsibilities while maintaining centralized governance.
Organizations and Access Control
Organizations are tightly integrated with Praisma Hub’s permission and role system.
Typical use cases include:
Limiting editors to content owned by their organization
Allowing supervisors to review or publish content across multiple organizations
Assigning different workflows or approval steps per organization
Access rules are evaluated using:
Tenant context
Organization membership
Assigned roles and permissions
This layered approach ensures both flexibility and security.
Organizations in Multi-Team Environments
For larger municipalities or enterprises, organizations make it possible to:
Operate multiple editorial teams in parallel
Separate responsibilities across departments
Delegate content ownership without duplicating tenants
Maintain a single technical platform with clear internal boundaries
Organizations enable scale within a tenant, while tenants enable scale across customers.
Governance and Auditability
Because organizations are first-class entities within Praisma Hub:
Actions can be traced to organizational context
Content ownership is explicit and auditable
Responsibility for compliance and quality can be clearly assigned
This is especially important for public-sector environments where accountability and traceability are required.
Summary
Organizations provide the internal structural layer within a tenant. They allow Praisma Hub to model real-world ownership and responsibility while preserving strict tenant-level isolation and governance
