I am wondering if Heroku still has support for organization accounts. I have followed the steps on this page and can not see the organization create form.
Anyone knows if the feature is still available?
This feature is currently available exclusively through the Heroku sales channel. For more information about Heroku organizations, please see

recently my company started using Bitrix24 as an intranet portal. Our employees use google drive and calendar synchronization between their google accounts (private ones, not gsuite). Few days ago I received an email from google:
We have contacted Bitrix24 support, but they could not give us any specifics with regards to this email and pointed out to contact google. Free google plans do not really have helpdesk support and point to sites like stackoverflow for help.
We do not really know what to do in this situation, as we have very little knowledge about google developer console. One of us just used his account to set up a project and provide OAuth to sync google accounts with bitrix24.
Several months ago google started releasing security changes enacted to help ensure that users data is secure. Due to this all developers with applications running risky scopes must apply for application verification
The developer who has created this application, probably the same person who received that email must click the link and submit the application. Once your project is approved you will not have any more issues. I suggest you begin the process now as it may take sometime for you to compete the process.
We are planning to use Okta as our identity provider and found some resources on its developer site, we was thinking to use Database sync option, we have already number of users on our own database so I want some detailed technical guidance that how we can sync things with Okta and how later we can support SAML 2.0 protocol with other identity providers.
Please provide some detailed things for start point. we are using mysql databases right now.
It would be great support if all technical resources in detail because I dont found enough detailed checklist on side.
Thanks

Is it possible to change ownership of a Heroku add-on? If so, how can we do that? In fact, I want to move an add-on from one Heroku account to another.
Let me elaborate my scenario a bit more to be clear.
I created an add-on with my test provider acount. Is there any way that I can delete the add-on from my test account and create the add-on with the same name with my official provider account? As a matter of fact, there is nothing about deleting the add-on or moving it under a different account in the Provider's documentation.
A Google search lead me to this support page, which says
This currently depends on whether or not the app has any paid resources associated with it.
For an app with no paid resources, you can use "heroku sharing:transfer" from the command line to transfer the app to a new owner.
For an app with paid resources, you have two options.
1) Remove all paid resources, transfer the app like a free app, then have the new owner re-add the paid resources.
2) Both the old and new owners should file a support tickets at http://support.heroku.com authorizing the transfer and with the new owner accepting charges for the app.
Also check out the Transferring apps and Collaborating with Others articles on Heroku's Dev Centre.
Since you're talking about ownership of add-ons as an add-on provider and not just ownership of your heroku app, I would say you should probably contact the heroku add-on support team via email. See this page here for an email address. Hopefully as an add-on provider if you submit a help ticket they'll be able to help you as well.
I went to scale my Heroku rails app, like I normally do, but WHAM! Heroku changed the privileges on me:
Scaling worker processes... done, now running 1
! Scaling an app as a collaborator is not supported; it’ll be removed soon. Please see: http://bit.ly/PWf1tR.
According to Heroku's collaborators privileges page:
Collaborator privileges
All actions are supported for collaborators as they are for app owners
except:
Scaling dynos
Adding or removing paid add-ons
Deleting or renaming the app
Viewing invoices
These actions are only supported for app owners.
Okay, so what now? Everyone on my team needs to scale the app and I'm not excited about everyone sharing the owner credentials.
Is there a way --Heroku feature, 3rd party tool, total hack, etc.-- that collaborators can scale Heroku apps since the recent privilege change?
Solved! Heroku's response to my question:
Based on feedback from you and other users we've decided to avoid
making any changes to the collaborator semantics until we're able to
offer a stronger alternative path for managing access control. The
deprecation notice will be removed shortly.
They were super helpful and apologized for the inconvenience too.
Why should I use AppHarbor addons when I can get an account directly from the provider and have additional benefits (like multiple users or projects per account)? I know having addons per application centralizes configuration but it also means you have to go through AppHarbor.
In addition AppHarbor adds their header on the website of some providers (notably Airbrake), which ruins the design (looks out of place and has massive margins). On some addons pricing is much more flexible than the addon pricing (again, Airbrake is a good example - no idea what those plans offer!).
Provisioning add-ons through AppHarbor gives you the advantages of automatic application configuration, consolidated billing and being able to manage everything from AppHarbor (and not having to remember X logins and not having to remember to keep X credit cards updated at various services providers).
We've tried to make make the header as inconspicuous as possible, and it seems to work well on most of our add-on partners sites. Please drop us a line at if it causes breakage anywhere.
We're also continuously working with our add-on partners to keep their add-on plan offerings up-to-date and I've just shot the AirBrake guys an email. Thanks for alerting us to the problem!
