Create your account

Learn how to create your CloudCannon account.

Let's create an account on CloudCannon. If you already have a CloudCannon account, you can skip this step of the guide.

Open the CloudCannon app in your Internet browser. You can log in with your email, or your GitHub, Bitbucket, or GitLab account. In this guide, we will create an account using our email.

Click on the Sign up with email button.

Enter your email in the Email address field and click Enter.

To ensure the security of your email address, CloudCannon will send a six-digit confirmation code to the email you provided. This validation email should arrive in your inbox quickly and will expire after 10 minutes.

Enter the code in the Confirmation code field and click Continue.

Once you have validated your email address, you can finish adding your account details, such as your first and last name, and an account password.

Your password must be at least nine characters long.

Do not share your CloudCannon password with anyone. CloudCannon employees will never ask you for your password.

CloudCannon will open your Sites page and the What's your main role? popup modal. CloudCannon uses this information to customize how much technical information it shows you. If you are comfortable with the technical side of website creation, select Developer. If not, select Non-Developer. You can change your answer to the question later in your Account Settings.
