This guide is for a new user or an invited member who is signing in for the first time. If your organization invited you, start from the link in the invitation email instead of the sign-up page. Follow Accept an invitation for that process.

​
Create your account

Open the sign-up page if you are creating a new account. Enter your email address and a new password. Confirm the legal consent before you create the account. If you use an identity provider, review the consent screen before you continue. Cancel the sign-in if you do not want to grant the requested access.

​
Set up two-step verification

During onboarding, choose an authenticator app and save your recovery codes before you continue. Recovery codes are your fallback when you cannot use the authenticator app. Store recovery codes outside in a location you control. Do not share them with teammates or support.

​
Complete your profile

Set your display name and username. Your account may also ask you to name a new organization. Invited members join their existing account instead of creating a second organization.

​
Secure your vault

Create and confirm your vault passphrase when prompted. This passphrase protects your cryptographic material locally. It is different from your sign-in password. Download and store the recovery kit before you finish setup. Treat both the passphrase and recovery kit as highly sensitive.

​
Recover access

From the sign-in page, choose Forgot password? to reset your sign-in password. Complete the verification code flow, then choose a new password. Resetting a sign-in password does not replace the vault passphrase. Use your stored recovery material if you need help restoring vault access. Next, learn how to create a project or ask an account administrator which project you should use.
