# CREATE ORGANIZATION

## Syntax <a href="#synopsis" id="synopsis"></a>

```sql
CREATE ORGANIZATION organization_name;
```

## Description <a href="#description" id="description"></a>

An organization is the highest-level logical space in DeltaStream. The organization's administrator can invite people from outside to join the organization. The administrator can manage these people by assigning or rescinding roles. Users in an organization can then use the platform according to the permissions in their roles – for example, such as adding [stores](/overview/core-concepts/store.md), creating [databases](/overview/core-concepts/databases.md) and [schemas](/overview/core-concepts/databases.md#_schema), and writing [queries](/overview/core-concepts/queries.md).

### Arguments

#### organization\_name

The name of the organization to create.

## Example <a href="#example" id="example"></a>
