# Create an Organization in Workspaces

> Create, rename, or delete a hosted Workspaces organization and understand its trial and deletion limits.

Hosted Workspaces calls an organization a **team** in buttons and settings.
Create one from **Your organizations** on **Home**. The creator becomes its
first admin.

Self-hosted Workspaces has one organization set by the instance administrator.
It does not offer **New team** or these hosted team settings.

## Create the organization

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the new team form">
    Sign in. From **Home**, find **Your organizations** and select **New team**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Name the team">
    Enter **Name**, then select **Create team**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Open the member list">
    Workspaces opens the team's **Members** tab. You appear as an admin.
  </Step>
</Steps>

If you have not claimed a trial before, creating the team starts your one
14-day trial. Every later team you create uses the same end date. Organization
workspaces start read-only if the deadline has passed.

## Rename the organization

Open the team, select **Settings**, change **Team name**, then select **Save**.
The team's address does not change, so its current links keep working.

If a rename fails, reload the team. If the names do not match, sign out and sign
in again before retrying.

## Delete the organization

Only an admin can delete a team.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open team settings">
    Open the team and select **Settings**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the team name">
    Under **Delete team**, enter the team name exactly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Delete the team">
    Select **Delete team**. A successful delete removes the team and its
    workspaces, so new requests can no longer open them. Workspaces has no undo.
    Already-open pages and cached copies may remain.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Stored bytes may remain until cleanup. See [Data retention and
deletion](/workspaces/security/retention-and-deletion).

## Recover from a failed request

* If creation fails, sign out and sign in again, then check **Home** > **Your
  organizations**. If the team appears, do not create it again. If it does not
  appear, retry once. Ask the instance operator for help if the error repeats.
* If deletion fails, reload **Home**. Some workspaces may already be gone even
  if the team remains. If the team remains, open **Settings** and retry **Delete
  team**. Ask the instance operator for help if the error repeats.
