Transferring ownership and deleting an organization

Only the Owner can transfer ownership or delete an organization. Both are in Settings → Organization.

Transferring ownership

  1. Make sure the new Owner is already a member. If not, invite them first.
  2. In Settings → Organization, under Transfer ownership, choose the member and enter your password.
  3. Choose Transfer ownership.

The new Owner takes over billing and members. You become an Admin. If the new Owner hasn't set up two-factor authentication, Iris asks them to before they continue.

Deleting an organization

  1. In Settings → Organization, under Delete organization, type the organization's name exactly and enter your password.
  2. Choose Delete organization.

The organization is locked straight away: nobody can use it, and pending invitations stop working.

Restoring a deleted organization

For 30 days after deleting, the Owner can restore the organization from the Deleted organizations page, which Iris shows when you sign in. Everything comes back as it was, apart from invitations, which you'll need to send again.

After 30 days, the organization and everything in it is permanently deleted and can't be recovered. Members keep their Iris accounts.
