Retrieve a list of organizations#

Description#

Returns a paginated list of organizations.

For Managed Service Providers only

This endpoint is only for Managed Service Provider (MSP) applications and requires a valid Wk-Service-Provider header. Most customers are not MSPs and do not need this endpoint.

Not an MSP? Retrieve your organization ID directly from the Workiva UI instead. See How to find IDs for Workiva files and items for instructions. Save the organization ID as a variable so you can reuse it in subsequent API calls.

MSP users: Find your Wk-Service-Provider value in the URL of your Service Provider Admin (SPA) screen. After signing in, select your service provider name to open the SPA. The URL will look like https://app.wdesk.com/s/admin/sp-orgs?sp=sp_a1b2c3d4e5f6789012345678abcdef90. The value after sp= (in this example, sp_a1b2c3d4e5f6789012345678abcdef90) is your Wk-Service-Provider header value.
