Griffin Organizations API
The organization resource represents your company and acts as a container for the majority of other resources, including [legal persons](#tag/Legal-Persons) and [bank accounts](#tag/Bank-accounts). When you register for an account with Griffin, a new [organization](#tag/Organizations) is created alongside your [user](#tag/Users) account (unless you have received an [invitation](#tag/Invitations) to join an existing organization). Your [user](#tag/Users) account is associated with an [organization](#tag/Organizations) via a [membership](#tag/Memberships). Your [organization](#tag/Organization) can be in one of two modes: - `test-mode` for organizations created when you sign up for the sandbox. - `live-mode` for when you go live with Griffin. Learn more about [sandbox vs. live mode](/docs/guides/sandbox-vs-live-mode).
