# Sign up & workspace

Create your account, set up your workspace, and invite your team.

## Sign up & workspace

Create your account, set up a workspace, and invite teammates. No credit card needed.

<h2 id="create-account">Create your account</h2>

  <p>
    Open <a href="https://app.formbase.so">app.formbase.so</a>. There are two ways in, and neither needs a password:
  </p>
  <ul>
    <li>
      <strong>Google</strong> — one click. Google Workspace accounts work too.
    </li>
    <li>
      <strong>Magic link</strong> — type your email and click <strong>Continue</strong>. formbase shows <em>Check your email</em> and sends
      you a link. Open it and you are signed in.
    </li>
  </ul>
  <p>Signing in for the first time creates your account. No credit card, no trial clock.</p>

<h2 id="workspace">Create your first workspace</h2>

  <p>
    A <strong>workspace</strong> holds your forms, submissions, integrations, and teammates. The first screen after signing in says{' '}
    <em>Welcome to formbase</em> and has one button: <strong>Create Workspace</strong>. New to the workspace/account/form distinction? See{' '}
    <a href="/getting-started/faq#workspace-vs-account">how they fit together</a>.
  </p>
  <p>
    All it asks for is a name — your company, team, or just <em>Personal</em>. Your timezone comes from your browser. Change either later in{' '}
    <strong>Workspace Settings</strong>, under <strong>Workspace details</strong>.
  </p>
  <p>
    Need more than one? Every plan includes unlimited workspaces — useful for separating clients, brands, or projects. See{' '}
    <a href="/workspaces-teams/multiple-workspaces">multiple workspaces</a>.
  </p>

<h2 id="invite-team">Invite teammates (optional)</h2>
<p>
  Working solo? Skip ahead. For teams, open the workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar → <strong>Workspace Settings</strong>, then
  click <strong>Invite</strong> in the <strong>Members</strong> section. You get a link that anyone can use to join. Members and workspaces
  are unlimited on every plan, and any member can invite — renaming, removing members, and deleting the workspace are the owner's. See{' '}
  <a href="/workspaces-teams/inviting-members">inviting members</a>.
</p>

<h2 id="next-steps">Next steps</h2>
<p>You have an account and a workspace. Next: build a form and publish it — everything else in formbase starts from a published form.</p>
