Connect an Additional Account

Once you have completed your Spot registration and connected your first account (either a linked or a managed account), you can connect additional accounts to your Organization in Spot. Your additional accounts can be from the same cloud provider or from different ones (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

Get Started​

Go to Insights & Recommendations in the Dashboard. When you open the Spot console or when you have connected a cloud provider for the first time, this is the default view.

Dashboard

From Outside the Dashboard​

In the Spot console, click Overview Dashboard.

From the User Menu​

You can create a new account from the account menu.

In the Accounts menu, click Add Account.

Step 1: Create your Spot Account​

Linked Account​

To create an additional account for using Elastigroup or Ocean, you need to create a Linked Account. Under Insights & Recommendations, click Connect a Linked Account.

Management Account​

To create a Management Account, click Connect a Management Account. You can have only one management account per organization. If you already have a management account, this option will not appear under Insights & Recommendations.

Create Account​

Once you have chosen which type of account to create, enter a name for the account and click Create Account.

Step 2: Select your Cloud Provider​

Choose your cloud provider for the additional account.

Step 3: Connect your Cloud Account​

Complete the steps for connecting your cloud account. If you chose AWS or GCP, you will need to choose whether to connect automatically or manually, as you did when you connected your first account. For Azure, you do not need to choose.
