An account takes about two minutes to create. It gives you a workspace to hold your sites, configurations and uploads. The Free plan needs no payment card.
Sign up with an email address#
-
Go to the sign-up page (the Get started button in the top right of every public page).
-
Fill in the form.

The sign-up form. The numbers match the steps below. - Name: how you will appear to your team.
- Email address: used to sign in and for notifications. It has to be an address you can read, because you must verify it.
- Password and 4. Confirm password: choose a long password that you do not use elsewhere.
- I agree to the Terms of Service: you must accept the terms to create an account. You can read them first; the link opens the Terms. The privacy policy explains how your data is handled.
- Create account.
-
Open the email we send you and follow the link in it.

The page you see until your email is verified. -
After the link is followed you are signed in and the dashboard opens.
When you register, Content Uploader creates a workspace named after you ("Alex Morgan's workspace" in the screenshots). You are its owner.

Sign up with Google, GitHub, Microsoft or GitLab#
Under the form, Sign up with Google, Sign up with GitHub, Sign up with Microsoft and Sign up with GitLab create an account from your identity at that provider, with no password to remember. You are asked to accept the Terms of Service after signing up. If you already have an account with the same verified email address, signing in with the provider connects the two.
