Before you start
You need to be signed out to open the registration form. Have a username, email address, and password ready before you begin.

|---|---|
| Access | A signed-out session |
| Account name | The username you want to use |
| Contact | The email address for the account |
| Sign-in secret | The password for the account |
If you already have an account, use Sign in instead.
Open the Register screen
The Register screen is the public entry point for creating a Conduit account.
Prerequisites
- You are signed out.
Steps
- Open
/registerin your browser.
Result: The Register screen opens with the registration form.
Understand the registration form
The registration form collects the three details needed to submit an account request and places authentication errors above the form.
| What you need to do | Control or area | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Enter the account name | Username | Accepts the username for the new account |
| Enter the account email | Accepts the email address for the new account | |
| Enter the sign-in secret | Password | Accepts the password as a password field |
| Submit the details | Sign up | Submits the registration form |
| Read a registration error | Authentication error area | Lists the response errors above the form |
Username appears for registration. Email and Password remain on the authentication form. The form requires all three fields, and Sign up is unavailable while the form is invalid. While submission is in progress, the form fields are disabled.
The inputs use their visible placeholder text rather than separate field labels. The screen does not add a field-level validation message, confirmation dialog, or grid.
Enter details and sign up
Use this procedure to send the three required account details and continue to the application's main route after a successful response.
Prerequisites
- The Register screen is open.
- You have the username, email address, and password you want to submit.
Steps
- Enter the account name in Username.
- Enter the account email address in Email.
- Enter the account password in Password.
- Select Sign up.
Result: The registration request is submitted. A successful response takes you to /.
When registration goes wrong
If registration returns an error, read it in the authentication error area above the form.
| What you see | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| An authentication error in the error list | The registration response contains one or more errors | Read the listed error and correct the relevant registration detail before selecting Sign up again |
Each API error is rendered as <key> <value> in an error list. No fixed authentication error text
is used by the registration screen.
Authentication and loading messages covers shared authentication messages outside this registration error area.
