IAM structure

W&B Platform has three IAM scopes within W&B: Organizations, Teams, and Projects.

Organization

An Organization is the root scope in your W&B account or instance. All actions in your account or instance take place within the context of that root scope, including managing users, managing teams, managing projects within teams, tracking usage and more.

If you are using Multi-tenant Cloud, you may have more than one organization where each may correspond to a business unit, a personal user, a joint partnership with another business and more.

If you are using Dedicated Cloud or a Self-managed instance, it corresponds to one organization. Your company may have more than one of Dedicated Cloud or Self-managed instances to map to different business units or departments, though that is strictly an optional way to manage AI practioners across your businesses or departments.

See more at Organizations.

Team

A Team is a subscope within a organization, that may map to a business unit / function, department, or a project team in your company. You may have more than one team in your organization depending on your deployment type and pricing plan.

AI projects are organized within the context of a team. The access control within a team is governed by team admins, who may or may not be admins at the parent organization level.

See more at Teams.

Project

A Project is a subscope within a team, that maps to an actual AI project with specific intended outcomes. You may have more than one project within a team. Each project has a visibility mode which determines who can access it.

Every project is comprised of Workspaces and Reports, and is linked to relevant Artifacts, Sweeps, Launch Jobs and Automations.
