Creating your CARTO organization

The CARTO Workspace is the user interface for our next generation cloud-native Location Intelligence platform. It allows you to create stunning maps and to perform spatial analytics at scale, with everything running directly on top of your cloud data warehouse(s). Learn how to make the most out of our Builder tool, Analytics Toolbox, Data Observatory, and other new features.

Create your CARTO organization

Follow these simple steps to access the CARTO Workspace:
  1. 1.
    Email and password
    • Go to the CARTO Sign up page.
    • Enter your email address and password. You can also sign up with your existing Google account by clicking Continue with Google.
    • Once you have entered your credentials: click Continue.

    • Click Verify email in the email sent.
    • Click Back to Login/Signup.
  2. 2.
    Organization setup
    When a user initiates the process to create an organization, CARTO will detect if their e-mail domain is already associated with an existing CARTO organization. If so, the user is allowed to choose to either create a brand new organization or to join one of the existing organizations that have been detected under the same domain. When joining an existing organization, there are two options available: to join the organization directly (if the admin allows through a specific organization setting), or to request access and wait for the admin to approve your request.

Create a new organization

To create a new organization follow these steps:
  • Choose an organization name (e.g. CARTO)
  • Select if you want anyone with the same e-mail domain to automatically join your organization, or leave it unchecked if you want them to go through an approval process.
  • Choose the region where you want CARTO to run. CARTO’s cloud-infrastructure in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is in four regions: Europe-West, USA-Central, Asia-Northeast, and Australia-Southeast. We give you the possibility to choose the region that is closest to your data warehouse.
