1. Create Organization

Purpose: Setup your organization for the first time

Prerequisites

  • You are running an on-premise (or self-managed) deployment of OmniSpatial
  • OmniSpatial has been successfully deployed and is ready for use

Background

When running OmniSpatial as a SaaS product, your account representative will perform this step for you. They will create a new organization within the SaaS OmniSpatial environment and provide you with the URL. When running Omni as an on-premise or self-managed deployment, you must create your organization using the steps outlined in this tutorial.

By default, the application will deploy with an already configured master organization which is used for global administrative tasks (such as creating new organizations).

Steps

Load the 'master' Organization

  1. Load the OmniSpatial application (root URL)
    1. Example: https://omni.my-domain.app
  2. Enter the "organization ID" master
  3. Sign in using the Identity Server admin account created during the deployment step

example

Enter Organization Details

  1. Click the "Administrator" option from the left-side menu (it is only available while on the master organization)
