Organizations in Yandex DataLens
Yandex Cloud Organization is a Yandex Cloud service enabling employee list management, single sign-on across Yandex Cloud services, and roles. If you want to learn more about Cloud Organization, see our relevant documentation.
As a rule, each Yandex Cloud user has at least one organization. If you do not have a Yandex Cloud account yet and it is your first time opening DataLens, the system will automatically create an organization for you. By default, all users at the organization level have access to Yandex DataLens, Yandex Tracker, Yandex Wiki, and Yandex Forms.
If you do not use any other Yandex Cloud services except DataLens, you only need to have an organization and activate DataLens. You can also create a cloud, if required, e.g., when you need a managed database. In this case, DataLens will have access to the managed databases located in the folders of the cloud connected to the organization.
Limitations
-
To use DataLens within an organization, a user must have the
datalens.visitorrole for the organization. To learn more about roles, see Roles. -
You can only create new DataLens instances at the organization level. Creating a DataLens instance in an existing cloud without an organization is no longer supported. You must first create an organization, and then create DataLens within it.
-
An organization can only have a single DataLens instance.
-
To create DataLens in an organization, you need the
adminorownerrole for that organization. -
Currently, technical support requests do not support organizations, therefore:
- To create a technical support ticket, you need to have a cloud. If you only have an organization, a cloud will be created automatically when you create a ticket. Moving forward, we will add the feature to create support tickets from an organization without creating a cloud.
- Currently, technical support plans can only be linked to a cloud rather than an organization. If you have multiple clouds linked to your organization, and each has a different technical support plan, select the cloud with the highest rate when you create your support ticket. This will provide you with the best technical support available.
