Teams and Accounts

Teams and Accounts

The Uffizzi Team and Account model is tightly coupled with the GitHub and GitLab account models. For example...

Uffizzi Cloud requires that you sign up for an account using either GitHub or GitLab OAuth. When you create a new account with Uffizzi, you are creating a personal account from your GitHub Personal Account (opens in a new tab) or GitLab User Account (opens in a new tab), depending on which provider you selected. Your Uffizzi personal account is always named after your personal GitHub/GitLab account. You cannot disassociate your Uffizzi personal account from your GitHub/GitLab personal account. If you sign in to Uffizzi with different GitHub/GitLab personal accounts, they will not be merged, i.e. you will have two separate Uffizzi personal accounts.

A Uffizzi personal account may also be a Member of one or more Team accounts.

When you create a Team on Uffizzi, you are creating it from a GitHub Organizational Account (opens in a new tab) or a GitLab Group (opens in a new tab). Your Team is always named after your GitHub Organization or GitLab Group. You cannot disassociate your Team account from your GitHub Organization or GitLab Group. Projects created within the context of a Team account are only visible from your Team account. Similarly, projects within the context of your pesonal account, are only visible from your personal account, not your Team account.

⚠️

You cannot attach GitHub Organization or GitLab Group credentials to a Uffizzi personal account. You must first create a Uffizzi Team for your GitHub Organization or GitLab Group, then configure credentials. Otherwise, you will see the error below.
