Slack Error: Only Org Admins Can Create New University of Michigan Workspaces
Slack Error: Only Org Admins Can Create New University of Michigan Workspaces
Tags

Environment
U-M Slack
Issue
I am unable to create a new workspace in Slack when using an @umich.edu email address as the owner
I tried to create a new Slack workspace via the Slack desktop or mobile app or on the web and received the error: "Only org admins can create new University of Michigan workspaces"
Resolution
Workspaces owned by @umich.edu email addresses must be created through the ITS workspace creation tool. Refer to
https://documentation.its.umich.edu/node/2935
for more information
Personally-owned Slack workspaces can be created by using a non-UMICH email address (username@gmail.com, etc.)
Additional Information
