# Primary Domain

A primary domain refers to the email domain used for sign-in and access to the FenixPyre admin dashboard (for admin users), FenixPyre Windows agent, and FenixPyre cloud integrations.

When an organization is created, a default primary domain is automatically assigned, typically based on the email domain of the admin user. This primary domain serves as the core identity for the organization within FenixPyre.

Only admin users have the necessary permissions to add, remove, or update the primary domain for an organization.

### What happens if I delete a primary domain?

Deleting a primary domain will instantly deactivate all the users with emails associated with that primary domain. Deactivation means the user will be blocked from accessing the platform. This includes sign-in to the admin dashboard, sign-in user sharing portal, access to all encrypted files, and all links shared by the users of the primary domain.

* Click the edit icon next to the associated primary domain to edit a primary domain.
* When you click on the edit icon, the primary domain becomes an editable text box.
* Make your changes and click on the done icon on the right. If you want to cancel the editing, click on the cancel icon on the right.
* When you click on the done icon, a confirmation dialog appears to confirm that changes. Click on the **Change** button to confirm and the **Cancel** button to cancel the changes.

### What happens if I edit a primary domain?

Editing a primary domain will instantly deactivate all the users with emails associated with that primary domain. Deactivation means the user will be blocked from accessing the platform. This includes sign-in to the admin dashboard, sign-in to the user sharing portal, and access to all encrypted files, and all links shared by the users of the primary domain.
