Getting Started

Welcome to Lumen! This guide will walk you through creating your account and setting up your workspace.

Creating Your Account

To get started with Lumen, navigate to your organization's Lumen instance and click Sign Up.

signup-form

Fill in your name, email address, and create a secure password. You can also sign up using one of the available social login providers.

Signing In

If you already have an account, use the Sign In page to access Lumen.

Lumen supports multiple authentication methods:

  • Email & Password — Standard email and password login
  • Magic Link — Receive a one-time login link via email
  • Passkeys — Use biometric authentication (fingerprint, face ID)
  • Single Sign-On — Log in through your organization's identity provider

Setting Up Your Organization

After your first login, you'll be guided through creating or joining an organization.

create-organization

Enter your organization name — a URL-friendly slug will be generated automatically. This slug becomes part of your workspace URL.

Organization Setup

Complete the initial setup by configuring your organization.

organization-setup

You can invite team members and configure basic settings during this step. Don't worry — all settings can be changed later.

What's Next?

Once your organization is set up, you'll land on your My Tasks dashboard. From here you can:

  • View and complete assigned tasks
  • Create new requests
  • Navigate to different sections using the sidebar
