{% hint style="info" %}
**Snyk is rolling out a new navigation.** The steps on this page describe the classic interface. If your view looks different, visit [Navigate the Snyk Web UI](https://docs.snyk.io/navigate-the-snyk-web-ui#where-things-moved) to map these options to the new interface.

## Create and delete Organizations
You can use Organization-level options to [create](#create-an-organization) and [delete](#delete-an-organization) Organizations and [Set your preferred Organization](/platform-administration/snyk-hierarchy/organizations/set-your-preferred-organization.md)
### Create an Organization
The number of Organizations you can create depends on your [pricing plan](https://snyk.io/plans/). On the Free and Team plans, you can create up to five Organizations in your Tenant. On the Enterprise plan, you can create an unlimited number of Organizations.
{% hint style="info" %}
When you are satisfied with the settings and integrations for an Organization, you can copy its settings and use them when you create additional Organizations.
{% endhint %}
Follow these steps to create an Organization:
1\. On the Snyk Web UI, open the Organizations dropdown list from the top menu and click **Create new Organization**:
Create an Organization
2\. Enter a name for the new Organization. Consider using a structured naming convention to identify your Organizations.
{% hint style="info" %}
It is highly recommended to enter a unique name for the new Organization.
{% endhint %}
3\. From the dropdown list, select an Organization from which to copy all settings and integrations.
4\. Click **Create organization**.
Create an Organization
A new Organization is created and is added to your Organizations list.
By default, each Organization has a unique Snyk ID and internal name, which you can find on the **Settings** page of the Organization.
Review the settings and integrations for the new Organization and adjust them to meet your requirements before importing Projects to the new Organization.
### Delete an Organization
Organization Admins can delete Organizations when there are no Groups. If the Organization is in a Group, only a Group Admin can delete the Organization.
Follow these steps to delete an Organization:
1\. On the Snyk Web UI, open the Organization dropdown list on the top menu and select the Organization you want to delete.
2\. After the selected Organization appears, click **Org Settings** on the Group menu.
3\. On the **Settings** page, select **Genera**l on the menu.
4\. Scroll down to the **Delete organization** section and click **Delete organization**:
Delete Organization
5\. In the Confirmation dialog, enter the name of the Organization you want to delete to confirm its deletion. Then click **OK**:
Confirm delete Organization
The selected Organization is deleted from your Snyk account.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.snyk.io/platform-administration/snyk-hierarchy/organizations/create-and-delete-organizations.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
