Cloud Accounts
Creating an Account is easy and free. Your Account gives you SuperAdmin access to your Teams and Projects on Directus Cloud, enabling you to create and manage Teams, Team Members, Projects, and Project Billing.
An Account is your portal to Directus Cloud, used to manage Teams, Team Members, Projects, and billing. To avoid confusion, "User" is the term for user profiles in a Directus Project, while the terms "Account" and "Team Member" are used in the context of Directus Cloud. Accounts on Directus Cloud and Users in a Directus Project are two separate systems.
See the Overview to learn how Accounts, Teams and Projects interrelate.
