# Starting a Fabricate account

To create an account, can use Google, GitHub, or Microsoft Office, or specify an email address and configure a password.

Your Fabricate account is initially created under the free license plan. You can then upgrade to a paid plan. For more information, go to [Fabricate license plans](/fabricate/about-fabricate/fabricate-license-plans.md).

You are also prompted to create your first database.

To use an existing account:

1. Click the account type.
2. Provide the account information.

### Registering with an email address and password <a href="#account-register" id="account-register"></a>

You can also register with an email address and create a Fabricate password.

1. In the **Name** field, provide the name to use for the account.
2. In the **Email** field, provide the email address to use for the account. You cannot use a disposable or forwarding email address.
3. In the **Password** field, create your Fabricate password.\
   \
   Fabricate passwords must contain at least 6 characters.
4. Click **Sign Up**.
5. Fabricate sends you an email message for you to confirm your email address.\
   \
   After you confirm your email address, you can log in to Fabricate.

## Creating your first database <a href="#account-first-database" id="account-first-database"></a>

When you create a Fabricate account, Fabricate automatically creates your first workspace. The workspace uses your account name.

You can then view or skip the Fabricate walkthrough. The walkthrough steps through the Fabricate features and options.

Fabricate creates a database called Default. You then use the Data Agent to start to populate and configure the database.
