8. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform acts comprising:

receiving an instruction to create a communication channel on a communication platform, wherein the communication channel is associated with an organization that is registered with the communication platform;

accessing data associated with a user that is associated with the organization;

analyzing the data to determine whether to verify the user;

based at least in part on a determination that the user is verified, causing an indicator to be presented in association with the user on a user interface associated with the communication platform;

associating a first set of permissions with the user, wherein the first set of permissions is different than a second set of permissions associated with unverified users; and

controlling use of at least one of the communication channel or the communication platform by the user based at least in part on the first set of permissions.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the first set of permissions is associated with a greater level of access associated with at least one of the communication channel or the communication platform than the second set of permissions.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the first set of permissions indicate one or more of:

whether information associated with the communication channel can be viewed by the user;

whether privacy settings associated with the communication channel can be modified by the user;

whether one or more other users or other organizations can be added to the communication channel by the user; or

whether files or other content can be added to the communication channel by the user.

11. The system of claim 8 , wherein the first set of permissions indicate one or more operations that are performable by the user without approval from an administrator associated with the organization.

12. The system of claim 8 , wherein controlling use of at least one of the communication channel or the communication platform by the user, based at least in part on the first set of permissions, comprises:

in response to a determination, based at least in part on the first set of permissions, that one or more operations are performable by the user, causing the one or more operations to be presented via the user interface.

13. The system of claim 8 , wherein controlling use of at least one of the communication channel or the communication platform by the user, based at least in part on the first set of permissions, comprises:

receiving, from a computing device associated with the user, a request to perform an operation; and

in response to a determination, based at least in part on the first set of permissions, that one or more operations are performable by the user, performing the operation.

14. The system of claim 8 , the acts further comprising:

receiving, as a query, at least a portion of an identifier associated with the user; and

based at least in part on receiving the query and on a determination that the user is verified, auto-populating a result to the query with a remaining portion of the identifier associated with the user.

15. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

receiving an instruction to create a communication channel on a communication platform, wherein the communication channel is associated with an organization that is registered with the communication platform;

accessing data associated with an entity, wherein the entity comprises the organization or a user associated with the organization;

analyzing the data to determine whether to verify the entity;

based at least in part on a determination that the entity is verified, causing an indicator to be presented in association with the entity on a user interface associated with the communication platform;

associating a first set of permissions with the entity, wherein the first set of permissions is different than a second set of permissions associated with unverified entities; and

controlling use of at least one of the communication channel or the communication platform by the entity based at least in part on the first set of permissions.

16. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:
