# AWS Organizations - Macie Configuration


The Macie Configuration resource for AWS Organizations provides access to certain Amazon Macie configuration settings for an organization in AWS Organizations. AWS Organizations is a global account management service that enables AWS administrators to consolidate and centrally manage multiple AWS accounts. For more information about this service, see the [AWS Organizations User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/organizations/latest/userguide/orgs_introduction.html). For information about integrating Macie with AWS Organizations, see [Managing multiple accounts with AWS Organizations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/macie/latest/user/accounts-mgmt-ao.html) in the *Amazon Macie User Guide*.

If you're the delegated Macie administrator for an organization in AWS Organizations, you can use this resource to retrieve or change the setting that determines whether Macie is enabled automatically for accounts that are added to your organization in AWS Organizations. To retrieve or change the setting that determines whether automated sensitive data discovery is also enabled automatically for new accounts, use the [Configuration](automated-discovery-configuration.md) resource for automated sensitive data discovery.

To use this resource, you must be the delegated Macie administrator for an organization in AWS Organizations.
