Create a demo organization

Configure an email for your account

To take certain administrative actions, like inviting other users or converting a demo organization to a permanent organization, you'll need to configure an email for your account.

<FlattenedSteps> <NavigationSteps target="settings/account-and-privacy" />
  1. Under Account, click Add email, and fill out the required information. Click Add.
  2. You will receive a confirmation email within a few minutes. Open it and click Confirm and set password.
  3. Configure a password, and click Submit. </FlattenedSteps>

Convert a demo organization to a permanent organization

<OwnerOnly />

If you'd like to keep your demo organization's message history and user accounts, you can convert it to a permanent Zulip organization. You'll be able to choose a new subdomain for your organization's URL.

Everyone will be logged out of existing sessions on the web, mobile and desktop apps, and will need to log in again at the new URL. Any API clients or integrations will need to be updated to point to the new organization URL.

<FlattenedSteps> <NavigationSteps target="settings/organization-profile" />
  1. Click the Convert button in the banner at the top.
  2. Enter your new Organization URL, and click Convert. </FlattenedSteps>

Deactivate a demo organization

<OwnerOnly />

Demo organizations are automatically deleted after 30 days, but you can also manually deactivate your organization.

<FlattenedSteps> <NavigationSteps target="settings/organization-profile" />
  1. Under Deactivate organization, click Deactivate organization.
  2. Select when the organization's data (users, channels, messages, etc.) should be permanently deleted. If you haven't configured an email for your account, data will be deleted immediately.
  3. Approve by clicking Confirm. </FlattenedSteps>
