This guide covers your organization’s initial setup in the StackSpot EDP Account.
It provides guidance on activating and configuring your organization's Account and Workspace. Follow the guides in the specified order:

Requirement

You must have Account Holder permission to proceed.

Follow the steps below:

Step 1. Activate your Organizations Account

1. Access the StackSpot Account Portal and log in using your organization's email.

2. Afterward, you will receive an invitation to sign in and access the Account.

3. After logging in, select the 'Organization' option from the main menu to access the Organization settings.

If you still need to get a StackSpot account, contact StackSpot and schedule a demo.

Step 2. Configure Single Sign-On (SSO)

Set up integration with your company's identity provider (IDP). It is necessary for any user logging in via your organization's SSO from the StackSpot Platform.

Follow the SSO setup guide

Step 3. Integrate SCM (Source Code Management) into your Account

When using your own cloud account on StackSpot, you need to create environments. Environments enable you to create content within Workspaces, such as Applications, Infrastructures, and more.

Next steps

  • Create Studio: The Studio is where your account members can create content in StackSpot, such as Plugins, Stacks, Starters, and Actions.
  • Create Workspace: Workspaces are needed for using the content created in the Studio to develop Applications and Infrastructures.
  • Configure Context in Account: Once your Account has Stacks created, you can configure Contexts. These are pre-configured values for Plugin inputs and other resources in a Stack to standardize or speed up the creation of Shared Applications and Infrastructures in StackSpot.
