# Onboarding

> Account creation, organization setup, and user management

This page covers how users sign up for Atomscale, how organizations are structured, and how to manage members and roles.

## Account Creation

Creating a new account requires the following steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Organization invitation">
    Request an invitation from an existing Admin user in the organization. An email with a link to
    join the organization is sent.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Sign up">
    After accepting the invitation, create your account with an email and password, or use a
    supported social login.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Account sync">
    Atomscale provisions your user record and organization membership. This takes a few seconds.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter your organization">
    After sync, you're taken to your organization's home page.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  If you are trying to create an organization, please contact [support@atomscale.ai](mailto:support@atomscale.ai) to provision the
  first admin account.
</Note>

## Organizations

Every Atomscale user belongs to an organization. Organizations are the top-level container for all projects, data, and members.

## Inviting Members

Organization admins can invite new members from organization settings.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open organization settings">
    Click on your <Badge stroke color="blue">Organization</Badge> name in the sidebar, then select <Badge stroke color="blue">Manage</Badge>.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send invitations">
    Enter the email addresses of the people you want to invite and click <Badge stroke color="blue">Invite</Badge>.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invitees accept">
    Invited users receive an email with a link to sign up or sign in and join the organization.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Invitations are restricted to email addresses that share your organization's domain. For example,
  if your account is `alice@acme.com`, you can only invite other `@acme.com` addresses.
</Note>

## Roles

Each member of an organization has one of the following roles:

| Role   | Description                                        |
| ------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
| Admin  | Invite members and configure organization settings |
| Member | Standard access to projects, data, and workflows   |

Roles are assigned when a user is invited and can be changed later by an admin.

## Managing Your Account

Access your personal settings by clicking your <Badge stroke color="blue">User</Badge> name in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar. From there you can:

* Update your profile information and email
* Change your password
* Manage API keys from the <Badge stroke color="blue">Access</Badge> tab
