# Creating a new account
Login to our cloud server (opens new window) using your preferred SSO OAuth provider such as Google G-Suite or Microsoft 365.
After you login to the cloud service, you can add your servers, team members, define roles and logins for your team members.
# Add Team Members and Define Roles
BastionXP supports Role Based Access Control(RBAC). The Roles and Logins feature in BastionXP PKI/CA can be used to define roles according to the roles in your team. It is simple, yet very flexible in defining user roles and logins.
Using the Roles feature, you can define new roles. For each role, you can define the logins needed to access servers or compute resources that belong to your team.
Learn more about how to define roles and logins, how to add team members to your account, and how to apply the roles to your team members in this documentation guide: How to define roles and logins
