 is a multi-tenant application. Tenants allow you to segregate groups of users and roles. Users from one tenant cannot access users in any other tenant. Note: this does not apply to public forms/flow which do not require login access to a tenant.

The  In-house superuser admin can create as many tenants on your form server as needed. Once the superuser admin creates the tenant, the tenant admin user can then login to manage the tenant, configure LDAP, add users & roles, etc. See the Admin Home Page for differences between the superuser admin and tenant admin.
