# Register a Flosum Cloud Apps Tenant
## Overview
To get started with Flosum Cloud Apps, you must first register a tenant for your organization. This registration process serves as the foundation for accessing all Flosum Cloud Apps. Once your tenant is successfully registered, you can proceed to add Backup & Archive and any other Cloud Apps that meet your organization's needs.
Once you've completed registration, you're ready to configure your tenant. This involves adding Salesforce organizations to Global Settings and adding users so team members can access the platform.
