Set up your workspace
Create your account and organization, which comes with a Sandbox and a Production project.
Everything you do in SDP belongs to an organization, your team's workspace. An organization holds projects, and each project has its own API keys, wallets, and members. This guide creates your account and organization.
1. Create your account
Go to platform.solana.com and click Create account. The sign-in screen has the same button at the top right. When sign-up is closed, these buttons read Join the waitlist and Request access instead.
Enter your email address and a password to create your account.
2. Create your organization
After you sign in, Name your organization asks for an Organization name. Enter it and click Create organization. You become the organization's admin. If you've been invited to an organization, accept the invitation or pick the organization from the list instead.
To switch organizations or projects later, click your organization's name at the top of the sidebar.
3. Work in a project
Your organization comes with two projects: Default Sandbox Project on devnet and Default Production Project on mainnet. Build in the sandbox project. Production can't move money until SDP approves your organization; see Go to mainnet. To read projects with an API key, see the Projects API reference.
4. Next steps
- Set up wallets for signing transactions
- Create API keys for programmatic access
- Send your first payment
- Go to mainnet when your sandbox integration is ready
