Create an Account

The only way to create a Connect Cloud account is through GitHub authentication.

  1. Go to https://connect.posit.cloud/.
  2. Click one of the Sign Up buttons.
  3. Click Sign Up with GitHub.
  4. Authenticate with GitHub.

If you are a member of a GitHub organization, you will also be asked if you want to authorize specific organization accounts. This is optional. Authorizing organizations will enable auto-completion for repository, branch, and primary file for public repositories in these accounts.

Access to private repositories is not available for individual or organization accounts.

Successful account creation brings you to your Content page.

Note

If you have an existing Posit Cloud account that uses the same email address as your primary GitHub email address, you will be sent an email to link the two accounts before account creation can be completed.

If account creation fails, please email with a description and screenshots of what you’re experiencing.
