# Organizations
## Overview
Thunkable's organizations are a set of administration and collaboration capabilities that allow multiple team members to work on a single project. Creators can jointly design and develop a single, shared project asynchronously.
A single Creator can edit the project at a time, and their changes are available for other members to view when they refresh their page.

## Assigning a Project to an Organization
### Creating a New Project in an Organization
When creating a new project, organization members can assign it to their own personal projects or the organization.
Projects assigned to the organization can be collaborated on by members of the organization.
Once a project is assigned to an organization, it cannot be converted into a personal project. It remains part of the organization and cannot be moved to any one Creator’s personal projects, including the admin of the organization.
Projects created within an organization cannot be shared with users outside of the organization.
### Duplicate into an Organization
The owner of a personal project can make a copy of the project in an organization in which they are a member. To do this, as the project's owner:
1. On the project's Design tab, click the **Project Actions** icon.
2. Select **Duplicate into...**
3. In the modal provided, give the project a name.
4. Use the dropdown menu to indicate which organization you want to copy the project into.
5. Click **Duplicate into Organization**.
6. You are the owner of the newly created project in the selected organization. There are no other members with permissions on this project yet.
## Viewing and Editing Modes
When accessing organization projects, members are in one of two modes: editing or viewing. There can only be one project member in editing mode at any given time – all other organization members remain in viewing mode.
Members accessing the project in viewing mode cannot make active changes to the shared project.
{% hint style="info" %}
### Transferring Editing Access
Only one project member can be in editing mode at a time.
* To request editing access, a member in viewing mode must click the chevron next to **VIEWING**.
* Click **Request Edit**.
* The member currently in editing mode is notified that another member has requested editing access.
* When the member currently in editing mode switches to viewing mode, the member requesting editing access is switched to editing mode and can make changes to the project.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
If the member currently in editing mode is offline, no other member can edit the project. The member currently in editing mode must return online and grant access to a different member.
