# Create your first page

> Go from signing in to a saved, searchable page.

You need a workspace and Editor or Vault admin access to the vault you will use.
Your personal vault is a good place to try this without changing shared company
knowledge.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your workspace">
    [Sign in](https://knowledge.northernlogic.ai/sign-in). If you received an invitation, open that link and use the invited email address. Otherwise, create a Solo or Teams workspace and complete Checkout. See [accounts and invitations](/getting-started/account).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose a vault">
    Open **Knowledge** and use the **Vault** selector. Choose your personal vault for private working knowledge or Company for information your organization should share.

    A new self-serve workspace starts empty. If you want the Northern Logic Wiki structure, apply its template before adding files: templates require an empty vault. You can also start with a blank vault.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a file">
    Choose **+ File → New**, enter `first-note.md`, choose its location, and create it. Open **Edit** and add a heading and a few useful facts.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Save and find it">
    Select **Save**. Wait for saving to finish, then reopen the page to check the saved text. Open **Search**, select the personal vault if you used it, and search for a distinctive phrase from your note.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Try this starter content:

```md theme={null}
# How we prepare a client meeting

## Before the meeting

- Read the latest project update.
- List open decisions.
- Confirm the meeting owner.

## After the meeting

Record decisions and the next action for each owner.
```

Saving creates a revision. Opening **Activity** shows the page's paper trail.
Editing is explicit: unsaved text is not a completed cloud revision.

## Check your result

You can reopen your saved page and find a distinctive sentence in Search. If it
is in Personal, select that vault explicitly. If Save is unavailable,
[check your role](/help/cannot-edit).
