2. Enter your email address and click Confirm email.
3. Click the sign-up link in your email and click Create account after entering your details.

Reach out to the administrator to be added to the respective Organization and Project. Alternatively, if a user from your company has an account and invites you to join, click the sign-up link in the email. This automatically adds you to the respective Organization and Team.
