To create a Filespace, go to your dashboard on LucidLink.com and click on "Create your first Filespace"

Choose the type of Filespace you'd like to create then click "Next"

Enter a name for your Filespace.  This is the name that will be displayed on everybody’s computer when they connect to the Filespace. 

Next pick the region of where the data will be stored. Most customers choose a region that is closer to where most of their team members are.  Click "Next."

Confirm the information you selected, then click "Create."

After a short wait while the Filespace resources are provisioned in the cloud, you will see an initialize button appear.  Click on it to begin the initialization process.  You'll be prompted to launch the LucidLink desktop application to complete the initialization, so if you haven't installed the desktop client, now is a good time to do so.  

The next step is very important. You will create the password for the root user. The root user is your master administrator. This is a password we cannot recover for you due to our zero knowledge security.

Please make sure to remember this password.  Click initialize.

Congratulations on your new LucidLink Filespace. You can now open your Filespace and create users and give them access permissions.  Learn more in our Admistration section of the Knowledge Base.  You can also integrate with Single-Sign-On and learn about data migration
