# Creating a new account in an existing organization

## New user on a self-hosted instance <a href="#getting-started-new-user-self-hosted" id="getting-started-new-user-self-hosted"></a>

If your company has a self-hosted Tonic Structural instance that is installed on-premises, then you navigate to the Structural URL for that instance.

Your self-hosted instance might be configured to use single sign-on for Structural access. If so, then from the Structural login page, to create your Structural user account, click the single sign-on option.

Otherwise, to create your Structural user account, click **Create Account**.

Your administrator can provide the URL for your Structural instance and confirm the instructions for creating your user account.

When you create the account, the Structural application opens to the **New Workspace** view so that you can [create your first workspace](https://docs.tonic.ai/app/workspace/managing-workspaces/workspaces-create-edit-delete#workspace-create-new).

## New user for an existing Structural Cloud organization <a href="#getting-started-new-user-hosted" id="getting-started-new-user-hosted"></a>

If your Structural license is on Structural Cloud, then new users that have a matching email domain are automatically added to your Structural Cloud organization.

The license agreement specifies the included email domains. When a user with a matching email domain signs up for a Structural account, they are added to that Structural Cloud organization.

For more information about Structural Cloud organizations, go to [structural-organizations](https://docs.tonic.ai/app/admin/tonic-user-access/structural-organizations "mention").

To sign up for a Structural Cloud account:

1. Go to <https://app.tonic.ai>.
2. Click **Create Account**.
3. In the **Email** field, provide your email address.
4. In the **Password** field, enter the password to use for Structural.
5. In the **Repeat Password** field, enter the password again.
6. Click **Create Account**.

Structural Cloud opens to the **New Workspace** view so that you can [create your first workspace](https://docs.tonic.ai/app/workspace/managing-workspaces/workspaces-create-edit-delete#workspace-create-new).
