 +===== Account Creation =====
 +Currently, our system offers two ways to use an account to use services in the Academic Cloud.
 +
 +==== Federated Login ====
 +
 +If an institution with which you already have an account participates in DFN-AAI (like most universities and larger research institutions in Germany), you can use this method of registration with us.
 +
 +Enter your e-mail address and click 'Register'. Our system will suggest an organisation for federated registration based on the email address.

 +
 +You can also use the "Federated Login" button to go directly to the institute selection.
 +{{:de:services:general_services:academicid:ssologin2.png?400|}}
 +
 +Select 'Continue registration' if your organisation has been found. Or 'I have not found my organisation' if this is not the case. You will then be given the option to manually go through the registration process (see section "Registration") for an account.
 +
 +==== Registration ====
 +
 +You don't have an account with us yet and federated registration is not possible? 
 +
 +With 'Registration' you have the option of creating an account with us. You will be taken to the registration dialogue if we have not found an institution matching your e-mail address and you have selected the option 'I have not found my institution'.
 +
 +{{:de:services:general_services:academicid:ssoreg1.png?400|}}
 +
 +You will then receive an e-mail to the e-mail address provided, which you must confirm. Your account will then be available.
 +
 +===== Troubleshooting =====
 +
 +Many of our services redirect you directly to our login service. Once you have successfully logged in, you will be redirected back to the service. Please do not save any pages of the login service as bookmarks in your browsers.
 +These cannot be technically supported & can lead to errors. Example: https://sso.academiccloud.de/... should never be saved as a bookmark.
