Managing Tenants

Tenants are the top-level organizational units in Manager, representing separate customers or organizations in your SaaS platform.

What is a Tenant?

A tenant represents a customer or organization with:

  • Complete data isolation - Each tenant's data is separated
  • Independent configuration - Tenants can have unique settings
  • Multiple projects - Each tenant can have many projects
  • User access control - Manage who can access tenant resources

Creating a Tenant

Click Tenants in the sidebar menu.

Step 2: Click Create

Click the Create Tenant button in the top-right corner.

Step 3: Fill in Details

Enter the tenant information:

  • Name (required) - Tenant display name
  • Identifier (optional) - Unique identifier (auto-generated if not provided)
  • Description (optional) - Brief description of the tenant

Step 4: Save

Auto-generated Identifiers

If you don't provide an identifier, Manager will generate one automatically from the tenant name.
