Create a Qualflare account and workspace

Sign up for Qualflare with email, GitHub or Google, confirm your email, start a trial from a plan link, and name your first workspace and project.

To create a Qualflare account, sign up at app.qualflare.com/register with email, GitHub or Google, then name your first workspace and project in a three-step setup; a sign-up from a Core or Scale plan link starts a 14-day trial.

Before you begin

An email address you can read mail at, or a GitHub or Google account whose email is verified there.
For a trial, the plan link from Start a trial.
If a teammate invited you, open the link in the invitation email instead: Join a workspace by invitation.

Go to https://app.qualflare.com/register. Choose Continue with GitHub or Continue with Google, or fill in First Name, Last Name, Email Address and Password.

Use 14 to 256 characters for the password. No mix of upper case, digits or symbols is needed, and Qualflare refuses common and breached passwords.

Create the account

Click Sign Up. If you chose GitHub or Google, you come back signed in instead: go to Set up your workspace and first project.

Confirm your email

The page says Verify your email. Open the link in the email within 60 minutes, enter your password on Confirm your email, and click Confirm email. If the email doesn't arrive, click Resend email; only the newest link then works.

If the address already has an account, you still see Verify your email: Qualflare emails that account instead of creating a second one, so sign in instead.

Set up your workspace and first project

After you confirm your email and sign in, the setup opens. It has three steps.

Name your workspace

Choose a Workspace Type: Team for your team's projects, or Open Source for a public GitHub project (Activating the Open Source plan). Enter a Workspace Name and a URL Path, each 3 to 32 characters. Click Next.

The URL Path identifies the workspace in its app URLs, and you can't change it later.

Create your first project

Enter a Project Name and a URL Path, which you can't change later either. In an Open Source workspace, pick the GitHub repository, and both come from it. Click Next.

Invite your team, or skip

Type an address in Email Address and click Add, once per address, then click Finish. An address still in the field is sent too. To skip the step, click Finish with no address. The step notes: Invitees will join as Viewers — you can change roles later from workspace settings. To change an invitee's role later, see Change a member's role.

On Starter, the workspace has 1 member seat, so an invitee can't accept until a seat is free (What happens at a limit).

The setup asks for a workspace, a first project and optional invitations; both URL paths are permanent.

Qualflare shows Almost there... and opens your project. You are the Owner of the workspace and of the project. Its Overview shows Set up this project, the steps to upload your first results: continue with the Quickstart.

Start a trial

The trial lasts 14 days and needs no credit card.
During the trial, Core has 3 seats and Scale has 10.
The app keeps the plan from the link for 24 hours, so finish the setup within a day of signing up. A setup after that, in a new tab, creates a Starter workspace.
A plain sign-up, or a Team workspace without a plan link, starts on the free Starter plan.
An Open Source workspace gets the Open Source plan, with no trial.

During the trial, Plan & Billing shows the days left and Subscribe and pay.

During a trial, Plan & Billing shows the days left and Subscribe and pay.

For what happens when the trial ends, see Free trial.

Join a workspace by invitation

The link in the invitation email opens the invitation. Without an account, click Create Account: the sign-up page shows You're invited! and names the workspace and project, and the invited email address is filled in and can't be changed.

There is no confirmation email: you are signed in and taken to the invitation. If the workspace requires single sign-on or two-factor authentication, the app says Your account is ready. Sign in to finish joining the workspace.

Already have an account? Click Sign In on the invitation instead. Then see Accept an invitation.

Create more workspaces and projects

Create a workspace, from All Workspaces in the workspace switcher.
Create a project, from the workspace's Projects page.

Verify

You should see your project's Overview with Set up this project, and your workspace in the workspace switcher with its plan in capitals, such as STARTER.

Troubleshoot

Message	What to do
`That password didn't work, or this link has expired or has already been used. Try again, or reset your password: that confirms your email too.`	Reset your password from the link on that page: that confirms your email too
`Your Google or GitHub account has no verified email address. Verify it with the provider, then try again.`	Verify the email at GitHub or Google, then sign up again
`An account with this email address already exists but isn't verified yet. Check your inbox for the verification link, verify your email address, then sign in again.`	Open the newest verification email for that address, or reset your password from the sign-in page, which confirms your email too. Signing up again sends no new link: Qualflare answers an existing address with an email that has sign-in and reset links only
`Use at least 14 characters. A memorable phrase is stronger than a short complex password.`, `That password is too long. The limit is 256 characters.` or `A single character repeated is easy to guess. Use a memorable phrase instead.`	The field names the rule. Pick a phrase of 14 to 256 characters
