# Orgs

An org groups multiple workspaces so assets, vulnerabilities and runs can be
queried across all of them at once. Osmedeus derives a workspace per target —
usually one apex domain — so a company with many root domains gets one org
covering every workspace.

Orgs are opt-in and additive:

- Every row that does not name an org belongs to the built-in `default` org.
- A request without an `org` query parameter applies **no** org filter and spans
  every org, so existing integrations behave exactly as they did before orgs
  existed.
- An unknown org returns `400` on filter endpoints and `404` on `/orgs/{uuid}`,
  rather than an empty result that looks like "this org has no data".

The default org has a fixed UUID of `00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001` and
cannot be deleted or renamed.

## List Orgs

Returns every org with its workspace, asset, vulnerability and run counts.

```bash
curl http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

**Response:**
```json
{
  "data": [
    {
      "uuid": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
      "name": "default",
      "description": "Default org for data not assigned to a specific org",
      "tags": null,
      "is_default": true,
      "created_at": "2026-08-08T10:27:07Z",
      "updated_at": "2026-08-08T10:27:07Z",
      "stats": {
        "org_uuid": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000001",
        "org_name": "default",
        "total_workspaces": 1,
        "total_assets": 1,
        "total_vulns": 0,
        "total_runs": 0,
        "workspaces": ["other.com"]
      }
    }
  ],
  "total": 1
}
```

## Get Org

Accepts either an org name or a UUID.

```bash
curl http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs/acme \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

## Get Org Stats

```bash
curl http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs/acme/stats \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

## Create Org

```bash
curl -X POST http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "acme",
    "description": "ACME Corp",
    "tags": ["corp"]
  }'
```

Pass `uuid` to create the org with a specific UUID instead of a generated one.
Returns `201` with the created org, or `400` if the name is missing or taken.

## Update Org

Updates metadata, and optionally assigns workspaces to the org in the same call.
Assigning cascades the stamp to every asset, vulnerability and run in those
workspaces — this is how data that predates the org gets grouped without
re-scanning.

```bash
curl -X PUT http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs/acme \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "description": "ACME Corporation",
    "workspaces": ["acme.com", "acme.io"]
  }'
```

**Response:**
```json
{
  "data": {
    "uuid": "f072a502-0a35-4e8f-aef0-79e048e082f7",
    "name": "acme",
    "description": "ACME Corporation",
    "created_at": "2026-08-08T10:27:07Z",
    "updated_at": "2026-08-08T10:52:50Z"
  },
  "assigned": {
    "workspaces": 2,
    "assets": 2,
    "vulnerabilities": 1,
    "runs": 0
  }
}
```

Renaming the default org returns `403`.

## Delete Org

By default the org's workspaces, assets, vulnerabilities and runs are reassigned
to the default org — nothing is lost, only the grouping.

```bash
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs/acme \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

Pass `purge=true` to delete that data along with the org:

```bash
curl -X DELETE "http://localhost:8002/osm/api/orgs/acme?purge=true" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

Deleting the default org returns `403`.

## Filtering other endpoints by org

These endpoints accept `?org=<name|uuid>`:

| Endpoint | Behavior |
|----------|----------|
| `GET /osm/api/assets` | Assets across every workspace in the org |
| `GET /osm/api/vulnerabilities` | Vulnerabilities across the org |
| `GET /osm/api/runs` | Runs across the org |
| `GET /osm/api/workspaces` | Workspaces belonging to the org |

```bash
curl "http://localhost:8002/osm/api/vulnerabilities?org=acme&severity=high" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
```

## Attributing new scans to an org

Runs created through `POST /osm/api/runs` inherit the org of the target's
workspace automatically, so a scan into a workspace that already belongs to an
org joins that org. To force a specific org, pass `org_uuid` in the run params.

From the CLI, use the global `--org` flag:

```bash
osmedeus run -f general -t acme.com --org acme
```
