1. Enter your email address to receive the six-digit one-time password (OTP)
2. Enter the OTP to proceed with logging in successfully.

When signing up with your email, no Git provider will be connected by default. See login methods and connections for information on how to connect a Git provider. If no Git provider is connected, you will be asked to verify your account on every login attempt.

Sign up with a Git provider

You can sign up with any of the following supported Git providers:

• GitHub
• GitLab
• Bitbucket

Authorize Vercel to access your Git provider account. This will be the default login connection on your account.

Once signed up you can manage your login connections in the authentication section of your dashboard.

Login methods and connections

You can manage your login connections in the Authentication section of your account settings. To find this section:

1. Select your profile picture near the top-right of the dashboard
2. Select Settings in the dropdown that appears
3. Select Authentication in the list near the left side of the page

SAML Single Sign-On enables you to log into your Vercel team with your organization's identity provider which manages your credentials.

SAML Single Sign-On is available to Enterprise teams, or Pro teams can purchase it as a paid add-on from their Billing settings. The feature can be configured by team Owners from the team's Security & Privacy settings.

Choosing a connection when creating a project

When you create an account on Vercel, you will be prompted to create a project by either importing a Git repository or using a template.

Either way, you must connect a Git provider to your account, which you'll be able to use as a login method in the future.

Using an existing login connection

Your Hobby team on Vercel can have only one login connection per third-party service. For example, you can only log into your Hobby team with a single GitHub account.

Changing your username

Your username identifies your personal account and its URL namespace, vercel.com/. To change it:

1. Open your account settings.
2. In the Username section, enter your new username using up to 48 characters.
3. Click Save.

Vercel displays a confirmation when your username updates.

Teams

Teams on Vercel let you collaborate with other members on projects and access additional resources.

Switching teams

To view another team's projects and resources:

1. Open the Vercel dashboard.
2. Select the team switcher at the top left of the navigation bar.
3. Select the team you want to view from the list of teams you belong to.

To choose which team appears when you first log in or open the dashboard, change your default team.

Team membership

You can join a Vercel team through an invitation from a team owner, automatic addition by a team's identity provider, or by pushing a commit to a private Git repository owned by the team. If you have a Vercel account linked to your Git provider, and the team has enabled Auto Approval, you'll be automatically added to the team. If the team has enabled Manual Approval, a team Owner must approve your membership first.

4. Click Confirm

If you'd prefer to cease payment instead of deleting your team, you can downgrade to Hobby.

Default team

Your default team will be used when you make a request through the API or CLI and don’t specify a specific team. It will also be the team shown whenever you first log in to Vercel or navigate to /dashboard. The first Hobby or Pro team you create will automatically be nominated as the default team.

How to change your default team

If you delete, leave, or are removed from your default team, Vercel will automatically choose a new default team for you. However, you may want to choose a default team yourself. To do that:

1. Navigate to vercel.com/account/settings
2. Under Default Team, select your new default team from the dropdown
3. Press Save

Find your team ID

Your Team ID is a unique and unchangeable identifier that's automatically assigned when your team is created.

There are a couple of methods you can use to locate your Team ID:

• Vercel API: Use the Vercel API to retrieve your Team ID
• Dashboard: Find your Team ID directly from your team's Dashboard on Vercel:
  • Navigate to the following URL, replacing your_team_name_here with your actual team's name: https://vercel.com/teams/your_team_name_here/settings#team-id. If you're unable to locate your Team ID using the URL method, follow these steps:
  • Open your team's dashboard and head over to the Settings section in the sidebar
  • Choose General from the left-hand navigation
  • Scroll down to the Team ID section and your Team ID will be there ready for you to copy

Collaboration settings

When someone pushes a commit to a private Git repository connected to your team's project, Vercel determines how the commit author is added to your team based on the collaboration settings. You can configure this behavior in your team's Settings > Members > Collaboration.

There are two approval modes: Auto Approval and Manual Approval.

Auto approval

When a commit author has a Vercel account linked to their Git provider, Vercel automatically adds them to your team with the Developer role. Their deployment then continues immediately.

On the Pro plan, the Developer role is a paid seat. With Auto Approval enabled, anyone who pushes a commit to a private repository connected to one of your team's projects, and has a Vercel account linked to their Git provider, is added to your team as a billed Developer seat with no confirmation step. If you want to decide who becomes a paid member of your team, use Manual approval instead.

Team owners receive a notification when a new member is added through auto approval.

Manual approval

When you enable manual approval, Vercel does not automatically add commit authors with a Vercel account to the team when they commit to your repository. Instead, Vercel blocks the deployment and team owners receive a notification to approve or decline the pending membership.

After approval, Vercel adds the new member to your team with the Developer role. Because the commit author does not join the team until an owner approves the membership, no seat is added or billed for them until approval.

Shared responsibility

Only grant write access to trusted contributors. In either approval mode, commit authors who are added to your Vercel team receive the Developer role, which gives them visibility into team members, team projects, and other permissions assigned to that role.

Committers without a Vercel account

If a commit author does not have a linked Vercel account, the deployment fails regardless of which approval mode is enabled. The commit author must create a Vercel account and link their Git provider before they can deploy.

Notifications

Team owners are notified in both approval modes:

• Auto approval: Vercel sends a notification when a new member is automatically added to the team.
• Manual approval: Vercel sends a notification when a new commit author's deployment is blocked and their membership is pending review. You can follow the link in the notification to approve or decline the request.

Billing

Members added through collaboration settings receive the Developer role and are billed at the same seat pricing as members added through invitations or identity provider sync. See Pro plan pricing for seat costs.

The approval mode determines when a paid seat is added:

• Auto Approval: a new Developer seat is added, and billed, as soon as an eligible commit author is automatically added to your team.
• Manual Approval: no seat is added until a team owner approves the pending membership. Declining the request adds no seat.

These settings apply to commits pushed to private repositories. Collaboration on public repositories is free.

Managing emails

To access your email settings from the dashboard:

1. Select your avatar in the top right corner of the dashboard.
2. Select Account Settings from the list.
3. Open Settings in the sidebar and scroll down to the Emails section.
4. You can then add, remove, or change the primary email address associated with your account.

Adding a new email address

To add a new email address

1. Follow the steps above and select the Add Another button in the Emails section of your account settings.
2. Once you have added the new email address, Vercel will send an email with a verification link to the newly added email. Follow the link in the email to verify your new email address.
3. Once verified, all email addresses can be used to log in to your account, including your primary email address.

You can add up to three emails per account, with a single email domain shared by two emails at most.
