Stay logged into different orgs in different tabs

Switchboard now lets users stay logged into different organizations in different tabs. This update makes day-to-day workflows easier for users who work across multiple organizations.

This works by adding an org identifier to each page URL. Going forward, all Switchboard pages will refer to the org ID in the URL.

We are excited to get this update into your hands — please send us any feedback at support@oneswitchboard.com.

FAQ

Opting in and out

How do I access the new experience? Scroll down to the site footer and opt yourself in. If you do not see this component, it is because you currently belong to only one org.

How can I opt back out? Switch the toggle off, then close every Switchboard tab. Re-launching Switchboard should show the old experience.

We intend to turn this on for everyone by default soon, so if you Opt Out, please share your feedback with us!

How to be in different orgs in different tabs

1. Open the org drop-down menu.

2. Hover your mouse over the org you want to access.

3. Click the new icon to launch the org in a new tab. You can also use command + click as a shortcut.

Clicking the rest of the row (anything but the new icon) will open the org in the tab you're currently in — the same experience you're used to.

Sending org-aware URLs to colleagues

What happens if I send a URL with an org ID to someone who is not a member of that organization on Switchboard? These URLs do not grant access. The recipient will see an error; they will not be able to access the organization unless you invite them.

What happens if I send a URL with an org ID to someone who belongs to the org but has not yet opted into the new experience? Everything will work fine — they'll be able to access the URL and use Switchboard as expected.
