# Onboarding a new account
Suggested workflow for onboarding a new account within Adalysis
The first step when adding a new account to Adalysis is to [link it](/onboarding/getting-started/account-organization/linking-accounts.md). If you already have preferred Adalysis settings, it's likely you'll then want to customize it.
