About Organizational Rules and Policies

If Mentor has a multi-tenant architecture, each organization can do the following actions:

  • Set policies to manage access to mentees, mentors, and sessions across organizations.

  • Set rules for mentor and session discovery within the organization.

See About Organizations to learn more about implementing the multi-tenant architecture using the User service.

Policy Architecture

Organization administrators can use policies to manage access to mentees, mentors, and sessions across organizations.

info

To learn more about configuring policies for an organization, see Setting Policies for an Organization Using APIs.

Types of PoliciesDescription
All

If the policy is set to All, the organization’s mentees, mentors, or sessions can be accessed by other organizations. Similarly, the organization’s users can access mentees, mentors, or sessions of other organizations.

note

Restrictions set by other organizations will be applicable for users.

Current

If the policy is set to Current, only users belonging to the organization can access the mentors, mentees, or sessions. Similarly, the organization’s users cannot access mentees, mentors, or sessions of other organizations.

Associated

The Associated policy provides users with access to mentors, mentees, or sessions across multiple organizations.

For example, if organizations A and B are linked with the Associated policy, only users belonging to these two organizations can access the mentors, mentees, or sessions of both organizations.

Rules for Mentor and Session Discovery

Organization administrators can set rules to allow users within the organization to connect and seek mentorship opportunities.

Examples:

  • If the platform contains sessions on communication, users seeking improvements in this domain can connect and seek guidance from each other.

  • If there are sessions hosted in multiple languages, users with similar language preferences can connect and seek guidance from each other.
