# Step 1: Create Project

## About Accounts:

* One **Account** per Team / Company.
  * Each Account can support multiple Projects.&#x20;
  * Larger organizations can have multiple Accounts based on sub-divisions.&#x20;

### About Projects

* Each **Project** represents an Application that will be Tested against.&#x20;
  * For example, a Frontend Application, etc.&#x20;
* Each **Project** can have multiple Test-suites supported and optimized.
  * Multiple Repositories can be connected to each Project for Coverage.&#x20;

### Role-based Access&#x20;

Before the following, add new team members to your Team's Account in the top right-hand corner under **"User Admin"**. This will send each newly added member an **Email Invite** to access the Instance. This can be done later at any time.&#x20;

* **Owners** created the Project.
* **Admins** have editing right to each Project they are assigned.&#x20;
* **Users** only have viewing rights to a specific project to which they are granted access.&#x20;

To add team members to each project after they've gained access to the account via email invite, for a **select Project**, click on the **right hand column UI page "Users"**, to add team members to that Project.&#x20;

## Create a Project flow:

1. Click on "**Create a Project**" in the Summary Page

4. Next Pop up window will allow you to add your team memberes to the Project. You can also Skip this step and do later under "User Admin" on top right corner.&#x20;
   1. Note: You **cannot** add a New Member here until that New User has been added into the **Account** by the User Admin.&#x20;
