Getting started

Create an account and a free instance

Verify your account, choose an organization, and prepare your first OriginChainDB instance.

Actual local console with sample data. No production database is connected.

1. Create your account

Open Create an account and complete the fields shown in the form. Read the service agreements before accepting them. Submit the form, then verify the six-digit code sent to your email.

If the code expires or is rejected, request a new one from the form. A local demo workspace is separate from a verified account.

2. Open your organization

After signing in, use the organization selector to choose the workspace that should own the database. Open Instances and choose New instance.

3. Choose the free configuration

Select Free, enter the instance details, and review the provider and region shown by the console. Check the live plan's storage quota, eligibility, and idle behavior before confirming.

The captured console is a local preview. Its 500 MB sample configuration and Create preview instance button do not provision a live database or issue credentials. Follow the instance-creation guide for that distinction.

4. Confirm the instance is ready

For a live launch, wait for the control plane to confirm that provisioning has completed. Inspect the instance's status and connection details. If the free service sleeps while idle, allow its next request to wake it; use the live status rather than a sample preview badge.

5. Connect your application

Open Connect and choose an application API or database-client guide. Use the endpoint and credentials issued for your instance, not the sample placeholders shown in a preview.

If a token is displayed only once, save it securely. The server stores a token hash, so losing the value requires rotation; replacing it invalidates the previous token. Next, follow the quickstart to create a table and run your first query.
