Teams API
The Teams API is used to create, edit, and destroy teams as well as manage a team's organization-level permissions. The Team Membership API is used to add or remove users from a team. Use the Team Access API to associate a team with privileges on an individual workspace.
Any member of an organization can view visible teams and any secret teams they are a member of. Only organization owners can modify teams or view the full set of secret teams. The organization token and the owners team token can act as an owner on these endpoints. (More about permissions.)
Organization Membership
Note: Users must be invited to join organizations before they can be added to teams. See the Organization Memberships API documentation for more information. Invited users who have not yet accepted will not appear in Teams API responses.
List teams
GET organizations/:organization_name/teams
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
:organization_name | The name of the organization to list teams from. |
The response may identify HashiCorp API service accounts, for example api-team_XXXXXX, as a members of a team. However, API service accounts do not appear in the UI. As a result, there may be differences between the number of team members reported by the UI and the API. For example, the UI may report 0 members on a team when and the API reports 1.
