Organization Memberships - API Docs - Terraform Enterprise | Terraform

Users are added to organizations by inviting them to join. Once accepted, they become members of the organization. The Organization Membership resource represents this membership.

You can invite users who already have an account, as well as new users. If the user has an existing account with the same email address used to invite them, they can reuse the same login.

Note: Once a user is a member of the organization, you can manage their team memberships using the Team Membership API.

Invite a User to an Organization

POST /organizations/:organization_name/organization-memberships

Parameter	Description
`:organization_name`	The name of the organization the user will be invited to join. The inviting user must have permission to manage organization memberships.

Note: Organization membership management is restricted to members of the owners team, the owners team API token, the organization API token, and users or teams with Manage Membership permissions.

Status	Response	Reason
201	JSON API document	Successfully invited the user
400	JSON API error object	Unable to invite user due to organization limits
404	JSON API error object	Organization not found, or user unauthorized to perform action
422	JSON API error object	Unable to invite user due to validation errors

Request Body

This POST endpoint requires a JSON object with the following properties as a request payload.

Properties without a default value are required.

Key path	Type	Description
`data.type`	string	Must be `"organization-memberships"`.
`data.attributes.email`	string	The email address of the user to be invited.
`data.relationships.teams.data[]`	array[object]	A list of resource identifier objects that defines which teams the invited user will be a member of. These objects must contain `id` and `type` properties, and the `type` property must be `teams` (e.g. `{ "id": "team-GeLZkdnK6xAVjA5H", "type": "teams" }`). Obtain team IDs from the List Teams endpoint. All users must be added to at least one team.
