Domains in the Organization Center
The first step you take in creating an organization is to create the initial domain. Domains within your organization are wholly-owned email domains that your admins can verify either through your web service or DNS server. For example, in the email Joe@main.com, "main.com" is the email domain. Verifying the initial domain automatically creates your organization. The user who completes domain verification will automatically become an organization admin, but this user is not required to have a GoTo product admin role. You can also add more domains to verify, or delete any domains you no longer need listed.
Add Your First Domain to the Organization Center
Once you start the verification process for a domain, you have ten (10) days to complete the verification. If this period lapses, the domain is set to Expired, but you have the option to simply restart the process using new verification codes. Once you have verified a domain, you cannot delete it from your organization, though it can be deleted prior to being verified or after it has expired.
Results: You have successfully verified your first domain, and thereby created an organization with your account as the organization admin. The verified domain will be listed the next time you sign in to the Organization Center.
- Add more domains (if desired)
- Set up an Identity Provider to enable single sign-on
- Add or delete organization users and admins
- Set up automated provisioning using the Active Directory Connector
- Set up Enterprise Sign-In (SSO)
Add More Domains to the Organization Center
Most companies will only need the first domain they add. You only need to add additional domains if users within your company sign in using other email domains but the same Identity Provider.
Delete a Domain from the Organization Center
The option to delete a domain is only available while the domain is not yet verified or has expired. Once a domain is verified it cannot be deleted from your organization.
