The Platform Hierarchy
Work through each layer from the top down to see how they nest and relate to one another.1
Organization
Your organization is the root container for all of your mFoundry resources. It holds your members, billing information, and global settings. Every project, workflow, and task you create lives within exactly one organization.
2
Projects
Projects are the primary unit of work inside an organization. Each project has its own name, status, and description, and can be shared with specific team members under granular role-based permissions. Think of a project as a self-contained workspace for a product, initiative, or client.
3
Workflows
Workflows define the automated sequences that power your projects. A workflow is an ordered series of steps — each step can call an integration, run a transformation, trigger a webhook, or branch based on conditions. Workflows are versioned, so you can iterate safely without breaking running automations.
4
Tasks
Tasks are the atomic units of execution inside a workflow. When a workflow runs, mFoundry creates one task per step and tracks its status, logs, and output in real time. You can inspect, retry, or cancel individual tasks directly from the dashboard or via the API.
Where Teams and Integrations Fit
Members of your organization are assigned roles at both the organization level and the individual project level, giving you fine-grained control over who can view, edit, or administer each resource. Integrations — such as Slack, GitHub, and Jira — attach at the project layer and fire webhook events that feed directly into your workflows, keeping external tools in sync without manual work.Explore Further
