Organization schema establishes your company or brand identity for search engines. It powers Google's Knowledge Panel, connects social profiles via `sameAs`, and serves as the publisher/author identity for other schema types like Article and LocalBusiness.

### [JSON-LD Example](#json-ld-example)

```
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Acme Corp",
  "url": "https://acme.com",
  "logo": "https://acme.com/logo.png",
  "sameAs": [
    "https://twitter.com/acme",
    "https://github.com/acme",
    "https://linkedin.com/company/acme"
  ],
  "contactPoint": {
    "@type": "ContactPoint",
    "telephone": "+1-800-555-0199",
    "contactType": "customer service"
  }
}
```

With Unhead, generate this using the `defineOrganization()` composable — see the [**API reference**](#schema-org-organization) below.

Use the [**Schema.org Generator**](https://unhead.unjs.io/tools/schema-generator) to build your structured data visually.

## [Schema.org Organization](#schemaorg-organization)

- **Type**: `defineOrganization(input?: Organization)`Describes an organization (a company, business or institution). Most commonly used to identify the publisher of a WebSite.

- [**Organization - Yoast**](https://developer.yoast.com/features/schema/pieces/organization)
- [**Choose an Identity - Organization**](https://unhead.unjs.io/docs/schema-org/guides/recipes/identity#organization)

## [Required properties](#required-properties)

- **name** `string`The name of the business.

## [Recommended Properties](#recommended-properties)

- **logo** `SingleImageInput`Logo image url, can be relative to your site root.
- **sameAs** `string[]`An array of URLs that also belong to the Organization
- **telephone** `string`The telephone number of the organization.
- **email** `string`The email address of the organization.
- **foundingDate** `string`The date the organization was founded.

## [Examples](#examples)

### [Minimal](#minimal)

```
defineOrganization({
  name: 'My Site',
  logo: '/logo.png',
  sameAs: [
    'https://www.facebook.com/my-site',
    'https://twitter.com/my-site',
    'https://www.instagram.com/my-site',
    'https://www.youtube.com/my-site',
  ]
})
```

## [Defaults](#defaults)

- **@type**: `Organization`
- **@id**: `${canonicalHost}#identity`
- **url**: `canonicalHost`

## [Resolves](#resolves)

See [**Global Resolves**](https://unhead.unjs.io/docs/schema-org/guides/get-started/overview#site-page-level-config) for full context.

- address as `PostalAddress` object
- resolves string urls of `logo` into a `ImageObject` with the id of `#logo`

For example:

```
defineOrganization({
  name: 'Nuxt.js',
  logo: '/img/logo.png',
})
```

Will resolve the logo url into an ImageObject with the id of `#logo`

```
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@graph": [
    {
      "@id": "https://nuxtjs.org/#logo",
      "@type": "ImageObject",
      "url": "https://nuxtjs.org/img/logo.png"
    },
    {
      "@id": "https://nuxtjs.org/#identity",
      "@type": "Organization",
      "name": "Nuxt.js",
      "logo": {
        "@id": "https://nuxtjs.org/#logo"
      }
    }
  ]
}
```
