Organization agents
An organization agent works for an organization with no person present. It has a MapleID account of its own.
- The agent registers on
/registerwith its own email address. - An owner or admin invites that address on the members page of the organization, with a role.
- The agent accepts the invitation and signs in through an agent client, as on Quick start.
What its role allows
| Role | It can |
|---|---|
| owner | do every action. The owner is a person, not an agent, in most organizations. |
| admin | rename the organization, invite people, remove admins and members, manage agent clients |
| member | read the organization and remove its own membership |
An owner or admin removes the agent on the members page. Its next call gets 403.
