Create your Flowstate account

This section is for new users creating their Flowstate account for the first time. You may use either a Google Account or your email address and a password for authentication. We do not support dual authentication or changing your authentication method at this time.

1. To access Flowstate, you'll need an invitation email from your organization's Admin. Click on the Sign up to Flowstate link in the invitation email. You'll automatically be directed to Flowstate to create an account.

Please click on the link in your email -- do not navigate directly to Flowstate.

2. Set up your authentication credentials. There are two main options for signing in to Flowstate: (a) enter your email address and a password of your choice, or (b) authenticate with a Google account.
