Register for a Maia account

Follow these steps to register for a Maia account:

1. Visit https://app.matillion.com/hub/signup, and enter your company email address.

   • If you’re signing up with a password, enter it on the next page. For more details, read step 2.
   • If your company uses single sign-on (SSO), you go straight to your company’s sign-on page and don’t see a password field.
   • You can also choose to sign up using either your Google or Microsoft account.
   You must provide your company email address when you register with Maia. You can’t register using your personal email address.

2. If you have signed up using a password, you will receive an email to verify your account. Open your email inbox, open the email about your Maia signup, and click Activate account. You will be redirected back to Maia and signed in. If you have used a third-party identity provider (Google or Microsoft), no email is necessary, and you can progress to step 3.

3. The Create your profile page will be displayed. Enter the details requested and optionally a phone number, and confirm whether you want to receive news, events, and promotions via email. Click Continue.

4. Three tabs will appear. In the first tab, Create your profile, use the drop-down to select What brings you to Matillion today? In the next drop-down, you are asked What cloud data platforms do you use? Select all that apply. Click Continue.

5. In the second tab, Set up your account, select the region where you want your Maia account to be created. For more information, read Account regions. Click Continue.

6. When you click Continue, the Getting Started tab will take you to a new page, where you’re required to select a data platform for your first project. Choose to either use a Matillion trial warehouse, where there is no setup required, or connect to your own data platform—if you select this option, choose from Snowflake, Databricks, Amazon Redshift, or Google BigQuery.

7. If you chose Matillion trial warehouse, Maia will then provision your warehouse and set up your account behind the scenes. This may take several minutes. Remain on this page while these resources are configured. Once your resources are ready, the Designer interface will be displayed. For more information, read Using Designer.

It’s recommended that you invite a second admin user to join the account after you have created it to create redundancy and reduce the risk of losing access to the account. To invite another user to your account, read Manage other users.

Now that you’re a registered user of Maia, you will automatically be enrolled in the 14-day free trial. For more information, read Free trial.

When you create an account you will be assigned the Super Admin role for that account, granting you access to all projects and environments within it. These permissions can be modified later. To do this, read Edit user roles.
