How-To-Create-An-Account

Overview

This how-to guide provides instructions on how to create a new Antelope blockchain account using the cleos CLI tool. You can use accounts to deploy smart contracts and perform other related blockchain operations. Create one or multiple accounts as part of your development environment setup.

The example in this how-to guide creates a new account named bob, authorized by the default system account eosio, using the cleos CLI tool.

Before you Begin

Make sure you meet the following requirements:

  • Install the currently supported version of cleos.
Note

The cleos tool is bundled with the Antelope software. Installing Antelope will also install the cleos tool.

Command Reference

See the following reference guide for cleos command line usage and related options:

Procedure

The following step shows how to create a new account bob authorized by the default system account eosio.

  1. Run the following command to create the new account bob:
cleos create account eosio bob EOS87TQktA5RVse2EguhztfQVEh6XXxBmgkU8b4Y5YnGvtYAoLGNN

Where:

  • eosio = the system account that authorizes the creation of a new account
  • bob = the name of the new account conforming to account naming conventions
  • EOS87TQ...AoLGNN = the owner public key or permission level for the new account (required)
Note

To create a new account in the Antelope blockchain, an existing account, also referred to as a creator account, is required to authorize the creation of a new account. For a newly created Antelope blockchain, the default system account used to create a new account is eosio.
