Signing in and creating a user profile

3 minute readIdentity management
The account management features described in this topic apply to all CloudBees support and training environments. For more information about managing accounts in other CloudBees products, refer to the documentation for those products.

You can access CloudBees products by using a single sign-on or by creating a new user profile. Using single sign-on, you can sign in with your Google or GitHub account or, if enabled, your corporate identity provider.

User profiles and organizations

Every user profile is associated with an organization. You can be invited to an existing organization or one is automatically created for you. If you receive an email invitation, your new user profile is automatically associated with an organization.
