Configuring visibility for organization membership	You can set visibility for new organization members across your enterprise to public or private. You can also prevent members from changing their visibility from the default.	[/enterprise/admin/user-management/configuring-visibility-for-organization-membership]	[{enterprise-server *} {github-ae *}]

{% if enterpriseServerVersions contains currentVersion %} You can also enforce your default setting on all current organization members in your instance using a command-line utility. For example, if you'd like to require every organization member's visibility to be public, you can set the default to public and enforce the default for all new members in the admin settings, and then use the command-line utility to enforce the public setting on existing members. {% endif %}

{% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.access-enterprise %} {% if currentVersion ver_gt "enterprise-server@2.21" or currentVersion == "github-ae@latest" %} {% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.policies-tab %} {% else %} {% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.settings-tab %} {% endif %} {% data reusables.enterprise-accounts.options-tab %} 3. Under "Default organization membership visibility", use the drop-down menu, and click Private or Public. 4. Optionally, to prevent members from changing their membership visibility from the default, select Enforce on organization members. {% if enterpriseServerVersions contains currentVersion %} 5. If you'd like to enforce your new visibility setting on all existing members, use the ghe-org-membership-update command-line utility.
