The linkChildOrganization() GraphQL mutation may be used to link a sub-organization to the main one. Use the unlinkChildOrganization() mutation to unlink a child organization.

To get a list of child organizations, use the childOrganizations() query. To get a list of parent organizations, use parentOrganizations().

Syntax

graphql
linkChildOrganization(
      childId: string!
   ): OrganizationLink!

You'll have to give the unique identifier of the organization to be made a child to the current one.

For the results, you can get information on the parent and the child organization. See the Returned Datatype for more details and the Example of above.

Given Datatype

For the input, you'll need to give the unique identifier of the organization to be made a child to the current one.

Table: Input Using Standard Datatypes

Parameter Type Required Default Description
childId string yes   The unique identifier of the child organization.

Returned Datatype

For the returned datatype, you can get information on the parent and the child organization, such as each organization's configuration and URLs, any organization limits, and other data. As the table below indicates, you would choose each parameter and then the sub-parameters you want (see second table below).


The datatype above uses the same datatype for getting organization information. For your convenience, the table for that sub-datatype is included here:
