Projects & Accounts
Overview
In Lumigo, accounts and projects provide a structured way to organize and manage your observability setup. An Account is the highest level of organization and acts as your workspace, allowing you to manage users, set usage limits, and configure account-wide settings. Within an account, you can create one or more projects, each able to represent a specific application in your organization.
When you first log in to Lumigo, a new account is automatically created for you along with an initial, default project. This project-based structure helps teams separate responsibilities, streamline collaboration, and gain visibility into application specific data. A project allows you to associate events with a specific application in your organization.
Features
Both accounts and projects have separate features, listed below:
Account Features

Billing & Usage Tracking: Monitor account-wide consumption and manage subscription limits.
