When you're invited to a Typeform shared workspace by a Plus or higher user, you join that user's organization. This article explains how to switch between any organizations you are in.

Who owns an organization?

You can invite others to join an organization, but you cannot change the owner of an organization. Whoever created the Typeform account will always be the owner of the organization.

How do I remove someone from my organization?

First, make sure you are viewing your own organization. It'll be the first one on the organizations menu, and the name of the organization will also appear as the account alias at the top of the menu.

How do I leave an organization?

Currently, the only way to leave an organization is for an owner or admin to remove you. When you are a member of an organization, you can only see Workspaces you are invited to within that organization.

How many people can join my organization?

This depends on your account. If you have a Plus account, for example, you can have yourself and two more users. For more on upgrading your account and adding team members, visit our plan upgrading and team management guide.
