Join an organization

Organizations in Altinn Studio own the applications and enable collaboration between people within the organization.

To join an organization, an administrator must grant you access. If you’re uncertain about the administrator or if your organization is available in Altinn Studio, you can seek assistance from the Altinn Servicedesk (mailto:tjenesteeier@altinn.no).

Are you an administrator for your organization and want to add a user to a team? See our guide explaining how this is done here.

Create an organization

Digdir creates the organizations in Altinn Studio.

To get an organization in Altinn Studio, your organization must

  • be a service owner and have an agreement with Altinn, or
  • offer service development in Altinn Studio on behalf of organizations in public sector

Organizations that are not service owners will not get access to their own test or production environment.

To create an organization, email Altinn Servicedesk with the organization’s name and who will be the administrator. Creating the organization may require a few days, and we will notify you via email when it’s ready.
