Organization and Admin settings

Configure Soda Cloud to match how your organization governs access, identity, and automation, with enterprise-grade controls and network security.

The Organization and Admin Settings in Soda Cloud provide a centralized interface for managing your organization’s configuration, roles, user access, and integrations. From setting your organization’s name to defining global roles, managing user groups, and enabling the Soda-hosted Runner, these settings help you tailor Soda Cloud to your team’s needs and governance policies.

To access the settings, click on your avatar, and then click Organization Settings.


Built for enterprise governance

Adopting a data quality platform across an organization raises the same questions as adopting any other system of record: Who can log in? How is their identity managed? What can each role actually do? How do we let CI/CD pipelines act without handing out a person's credentials?

Soda Cloud is designed to answer all of those out of the box.

Identity, your way

Federate authentication through your existing SAML 2.0 identity provider (including Azure AD, Okta, and Google Workspace) and let your IdP remain the source of truth for who works at your company and which teams they belong to.

Permissions that match your org chart

Define what each role can do across the organization and per dataset, with a fully customizable role model. Grant exactly the access each team needs without forcing your structure into a rigid template.

Network-level access controls

Restrict access to Soda Cloud to your corporate network, VPN, or any defined set of IP ranges. Requests from anywhere else are blocked before they ever reach authentication.

Automation-ready by design

Run scans, verify contracts, and call the API from CI/CD pipelines using service accounts: machine identities that are separate from any individual user and revocable in one click.

Customizable platform

Soda Cloud allows organizations to have full control over each user and group permissions:

  • Organization-level configuration: set your organization's identity in the platform, control which Soda capabilities are enabled (including AI-powered assistants and dataset profiling), and manage the storage of data source secrets used by your scans.

  • User management: invite, deactivate, and organize users into groups, with group-based permission assignment so access scales as the team grows.

  • Single Sign-On (SSO): connect Soda Cloud to your identity provider, with optional one-way sync of user groups directly from the IdP.

  • Global and dataset roles (RBAC): design the role model that fits your organization, with separate scopes for what users can do across the platform versus what they can do on a specific dataset.

  • Service accounts: issue API-only identities for pipelines and integrations, with their own permissions and lifecycle independent of any human user.

  • Network controls: restrict platform access by IP address or CIDR range, enforced before authentication.

  • Multiple environments: operate separate organizations for production, staging, and development from the same user profile, so each environment has its own data, roles, and credentials.

Security and access control at a glance

Soda Cloud treats identity as the security perimeter. Every request is authenticated, scoped to the user's organization, and evaluated through role-based access control before any data is returned.

The result is a platform that supports both least-privilege access for sensitive datasets and broad data democratization for the rest — without forcing one approach on the entire organization.

Add multiple organizations

You may find it useful to set up multiple organizations in Soda Cloud so that each corresponds with a different environment in your network infrastructure, such as production, staging, and development. Such a setup makes it easy for you and your team to access multiple, independent Soda Cloud organizations using the same profile, or login credentials.

Note that Soda Cloud associates any API keys that you generate within an organization with both your profile and the organization in which you generated the keys. API keys are not interchangeable between organizations.
