When you open Keycloak, you'll see the **users screen** of the Keycloak application, and a list of your existing users.

Click the **Add user** button to add a new user to your CIIM.

You'll see the **Create user** screen

- In the **Username** field, give your user a simple username
- In the **Email** field, enter and check your user’s email address

You can also add a user's **First name** and **Last name**.

At the top of the screen, there are dropdown options for **Required user actions**.

Choose **Update Password** and **Verify Email** to ensure that your user receives a prompt to verify their account and reset their password.

Then click **Create** to create a record for your user.

You'll see a notification that the user has been created and then you'll see the **User details** screen.

Click on the **Credentials** tab to begin creating a password.

The screen will prompt you to **create a password** for your new user.

Add a temporary password and click on **Set password** to create a password.

Creating a temporary password will prompt the user to create their own password the first time that they log in.

- Click the **switch** to make the password temporary
- Click **Save** to create the user’s temporary password
- **Confirm Save** to confirm that you want to set the password

On the **Credentials** tab of the User details screen you’ll see that your user now has a password.

Click **Users** in the left hand navigation to return to the list of users and see your new user, who has not been verified yet.
