2. On the GitHub authorization page, click **Authorize LaunchDarkly**.
3. The LaunchDarkly "Complete profile" screen appears. Enter the **First name** and **Last name** to use within LaunchDarkly.
4. Confirm or update your **Work email**. By default this is the primary email address in your GitHub account. You can update it to any verified email address in your GitHub account. You cannot use an email address that is already associated with a LaunchDarkly account.
5. Enter your **Organization**.
6. Click **Sign up**.
7. In your work email account, find the email titled "Verify your LaunchDarkly account" and click **Verify email**.

After an account member creates their account, LaunchDarkly will add them to the correct LaunchDarkly organization using domain matching. If your organization does not have domain matching enabled, completing the sign up form will create a new account with a 14-day trial.
