Configure Axiom organization

This section explains how to configure your Axiom organization.

Determine organization ID

  1. Click Settings > General.
  2. Find organization ID in the ID section.

Determine organization edge deployment

  1. Click Settings > General.
  2. Find your organization’s default edge deployment in the Edge deployment section.

For more information, see Edge deployments.

Set default dataset retention period

The default dataset retention period determines how long Axiom stores data in datasets that don’t have their own custom retention period. Datasets without a custom retention period inherit this value. You can only set the default dataset retention period on the Axiom Cloud plan.

Warning

Changing the default dataset retention period affects existing datasets, not only datasets you create later. When you lower the default, Axiom immediately deletes all data older than the new period in every dataset that inherits the default. This process can’t be undone.

Before you lower the default, set a custom retention period on each dataset whose data you want to keep. For more information, see Specify data retention period.

The default dataset retention period doesn’t affect the maximum query window of your organization. The maximum query window is determined by your plan and stays the same when you change the default dataset retention period.

To store data for longer, increase the default dataset retention period. Increasing the default doesn’t delete any data.

To set the default dataset retention period, follow these steps:

  1. Click Settings > General.
  2. Click next to the Default dataset retention section.
  3. Specify the default dataset retention period.
  4. Click Submit.

Turn Axiom AI on or off

Features powered by Axiom AI allow you to get insights from your data faster. These features are powered by leading foundation models through trusted enterprise providers including Amazon Bedrock and Google Vertex. Your inputs and outputs are never used to train generative models.

AI features are available for all organizations. They comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations. This means that you can use them even if your organization has a Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with Axiom.

AI features are turned on by default. You can turn AI features on or off anytime for the whole organization, for example, for regulatory and compliance reasons.

To turn Axiom AI on or off:

  1. Click Settings > General.
  2. Click Turn on Axiom AI or Turn off Axiom AI.

Delete organization

Warning

This is a destructive action. After you delete your organization, you lose access to all data within that org.

To delete your organization:

  1. Back up your data. You aren’t able to access the data after deleting the org.
  2. Click Settings > General
  3. Click Delete organization.
