Configure Elixion platform settings and preferences

Settings

Configure Elixion to match your workflow, preferences, and organizational needs.

Settings Overview

Settings Levels

| Level | Scope | Access | |-------|-------|--------| | Personal | Your preferences | Individual | | Project | Project-specific | Project OWNER/ADMIN | | Space | Space-wide | Space OWNER/ADMIN |

There is no Organization/platform-wide settings level — Elixion has no Organization tier today. A real org/tenant boundary is tracked as ELI-1284 and has not shipped; see Spaces for details.

Organization Settings

There is no Organization settings level. Elixion does not have an Organization/tenant object today — no org-wide branding, billing, SSO enforcement, or compliance settings distinct from what's configured per project or per space. A real org/tenant boundary (needed to onboard independent external companies in isolation from each other) is tracked as ELI-1284 and has not shipped. Do not point users at "Admin → Organization Settings" — it doesn't exist.

Best Practices

Configuration

Do:

  • Review settings regularly
  • Document custom configurations
  • Test changes in staging
  • Backup before major changes

Don't:

  • Change settings without planning
  • Give excessive permissions
  • Ignore security settings
  • Skip documentation
