| ### Default group for child organizations | ||
|
|
||
| When you create a child organization, Datadog automatically adds it to the Organization Group of the root organization in its hierarchy. In a multi-level hierarchy, this is the root organization's group, not the immediate parent's group. The child organization immediately receives the group's policies and shared roles. |

What does this PR do? What is the motivation?
Documents that newly created child organizations automatically join the hierarchy root's Organization Group and immediately receive its policies and shared roles. Clarifies that this default applies to creation through the UI, the API (
POST /api/v1/org), and Terraform, and that child organizations can also be created directly from an Organization Group in the UI.Merge readiness
