Polytomic includes a command-line tool, ptctl, that you can use to administer your deployment. Common actions include managing Organizations and users.

To run ptctl, open a shell in a running Polytomic container.

On Kubernetes, for a release named polytomic in the polytomic namespace:

kubectl exec -it -n polytomic deploy/polytomic-web -- /bin/bash

On ECS:

aws ecs execute-command --cluster CLUSTER --task TASK_ID --container CONTAINER --interactive --command "/bin/bash"

Organizations

Organizations separate groups of users. They're fully isolated workspaces and share nothing, so you must recreate Connections, models, and syncs for each Organization.

Creating a new Organization

Polytomic creates a default Organization when it first starts. To create another, run:

./ptctl orgs add

Users

Creating a new user

You can add users to any Organization. Admin users can add other users.

./ptctl users add

Switching between Organizations

If you're a member of multiple Organizations, click Switch in the app to move between them.
