# Create or update a Redox organization

After creating a Redox dashboard account, you have to create a <u>**Redox organization record**</u> to associate with your account. [Learn more about Redox organizations](/basics/managing-access-for-your-redox-organization/what-are-redox-organizations-and-users).

## Prerequisites

- [Create a Redox dashboard account](/quickstart-for-redox/create-a-redox-dashboard-account). 
- Any user can create a Redox organization and become its owner. But a user must be assigned to an <u>**owner**</u> role to update the organization profile. [Learn about user roles](/basics/managing-access-for-your-redox-organization/what-are-user-roles).
- To join an existing organization, an organization owner must invite you. When you receive an email invite, click the link to confirm your email address and join the organization. [Learn how to add a user](/how-to-use-redox/manage-your-redox-setup/add-a-user-to-a-redox-organization).
- If you want a Redox organization to move from a free account to preproduction, you must be in the Redox onboarding process. Talk to your sales rep with any questions.
