# Creating Efento Cloud account

To start using Efento Cloud, you first need to create a user account. There are two ways to do this:

1. **Direct registration:** You can go directly to [cloud.efento.io](https://cloud.efento.io) and register a new account. This method allows you to set up your own account and create a new Organization in the platform.
2. **Invitation via email:** If you have been invited to join an existing Organization, you will receive an email invitation. Click the link in the email to register your account.

Regardless of which method you use, the account registration process is the same and is described in the following steps.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.efento.io/efento-cloud/getting-started/quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
