Create an Account

Whether you want to create a workspace to manage your own projects or have been invited to join an existing one, the first step is to create a user account in EMDESK.

To get started, make sure you have:

  • A valid email address with access
  • A secure password ready

đź’ˇ Tip: If you have a Microsoft business or institutional account, you can sign up and log in using your Microsoft account for instant access to EMDESK.

  1. Go to the EMDESK Sign-Up page to begin: https://app.emdesk.com/#!/signup.
  2. The “Create a new account” dialog will appear. Complete the following fields:

  • Email address: This will be your username and your primary email for your account.

đź’ˇ Tip: You can add more email addresses later, but your primary email will always be used for login.

  • Password: Must be at least 6 characters long, and contain numbers, lowercase and uppercase letters. It must not be the same as your email address.
  • Retype password to confirm.
  • If prompted, enter the CAPTCHA code to verify you’re human.
  • Tick the checkbox to agree to the Terms of Service.
  • Optionally, tick the second checkbox to receive EMDESK news and project management insights via email (you can unsubscribe anytime).
  • Click Sign up.
  1. Confirm Your Email Address

You’ll see the “Email validation pending” dialog. An activation link and six-digit code will be sent to your email address.

  • Open the email and click the activation link, or copy the six-digit code and paste it into the dialog.
  • Click Activate.

đź’ˇ Tips:

  • Didn’t receive the email? Check your spam/junk folder. You can also click “Resend Email” on the dialog.
  • If you closed the window, you’ll be redirected to the email confirmation step when logging in again.
  • If the email address is already registered, you’ll receive a password reset email instead. See Login Issues for help.
  1. After successful activation, the “Welcome to EMDESK!” dialog will appear.
  • Click the camera icon to upload a profile picture (optional) and be uploaded later.
  • Fill in your name, organisation, and job title.
  • Click Continue.

Next steps

  • If you’ve been invited to a workspace, you’ll be taken directly into it. We recommend to update your profile.
  • Otherwise the "Create a new workspace" dialogue will open. Continue with this article Create a new workspace.
