# Provisioning User Accounts

{% hint style="info" %}
It is a mandatory requirement to enable MFA on every Snowflake user account, please visit '[Enabling MFA on Snowflake](/enabling-mfa-on-snowflake.md)' after creating your user account. 
{% endhint %}

To access your organisation's data warehouse, you must first create the user accounts to access it. You can manage and create as many user accounts as you wish without any additional costs. We recommend that each individual user or application is provided with a unique set of credentials.

To setup a User Account: 

* Navigate to ‘Users'
* Select 'Provision User Account'
* Enter a 'Username'
* Enter a 'Password' (passwords must be at least 8 characters contain 1 number and should contain a mix of lowercase and uppercase letters)
* Confirm your password
* Select 'Provision'

**Please note:** Creating the first user account is a long running process and can take several minutes to complete.

Once your user account(s) have been created, you will have the ability to update the password or to 'Deactivate' it, removing access to any data for that user.
