# /api/organizations/active (dashboard)

Source-derived dashboard endpoint contract, authentication, request validation, responses, and errors.

Source: https://docs.minds.sh/docs/api/platform/reference/dashboard--api-organizations-active



This is the **dashboard** service route. Its origin and authentication are described in [Platform API overview](/docs/api/platform) and [Authentication](/docs/api/platform/authentication). A path shared by another service is a different endpoint.

## Authentication and access [#authentication-and-access]

Dashboard session cookie through @repo/auth/server. Some auth-summary routes can redirect to sign-in; inspect the status branches below.

## Method behavior [#method-behavior]

The handler excerpt preserves field validation, response envelopes, cookie changes, and exception branches. Values returned by service helpers retain their named response type above; for passthrough routes, the upstream response is authoritative.

### POST [#post]

```typescript
export async function POST(request: NextRequest) {
  try {
    const session = await getSession();
    if (!session) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: { code: 'UNAUTHENTICATED', message: 'Sign in at auth.l1fe.ai.' } },
        { status: 401 }
      );
    }

    const body = await request.json();
    const organizationId = typeof body.organizationId === 'string' ? body.organizationId : null;
    if (!organizationId) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: { code: 'INVALID_REQUEST', message: 'organizationId is required' } },
        { status: 400 }
      );
    }

    const organizations = await listMindsOrganizations({
      accessToken: session.accessToken,
      includeEntitlements: false,
    });
    const organization = organizations.find((item) => item.id === organizationId);
    if (!organization) {
      return NextResponse.json(
        { error: { code: 'ORG_NOT_AVAILABLE', message: 'Organization is not available to Minds.' } },
        { status: 404 }
      );
    }

    const cookieStore = await cookies();
    cookieStore.set(ACTIVE_TENANT_COOKIE, organization.id, {
      httpOnly: true,
      secure: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
      sameSite: 'lax',
      maxAge: COOKIE_MAX_AGE,
      path: '/',
    });

    return NextResponse.json({ success: true, organizationId: organization.id });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Failed to set active organization:', error);
    return NextResponse.json(
      {
        error: {
          code: 'SET_FAILED',
          message: error instanceof Error ? error.message : 'Failed to set active organization',
        },
      },
      { status: 500 }
    );
  }
}
```
