Issue

This article provides a solution for when you are unable to add a user to an Adobe Commerce cloud project.

Cause

The user’s account must first be created at https://accounts.magento.cloud and linked to their Adobe SSO before they can be added as a user to the project. If the user has an Adobe account but not a Commerce (magento.com) account, they must first create one.

Solution

  1. Ask the user to sign in at https://accounts.magento.cloud. The user must already be registered with Adobe using the same email address.

    note note
    NOTE
    Creating or having an account at https://account.adobe.com doesn’t automatically mean that the user has an account at https://accounts.magento.cloud. The user must first create their Commerce account.
  2. If the user already has an Adobe account but is unable to sign in, ask them to submit a support request with Issue Reason set to User Management.

  3. After the user successfully signs in to https://accounts.magento.cloud, you can add the user to the project. For detailed steps, see Add users and manage access in the Commerce on Cloud Infrastructure Guide.
