# Registering an Email Address for a Google Identity

DNAstack uses Google as the identity provider for [Passport](https://github.com/DNAstack/dnastack-product-docs/blob/main/docs/passport/broken-reference/README.md) authentication. You'll need a Google account to access DNAstack products. If you don't have a Google or Google Workspaces account, you can create one using your existing email address.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Important Note**\
If your institutional email is currently configured as an alternate email for an existing Google Account, you'll need to remove it before creating a new Google Account with that address.
{% endhint %}

## Registration Steps

1. Visit accounts.google.com
2. Click "Create account" and select "For my personal use"
3. Follow the prompts to the email entry screen
4. Select "Use your existing email"
5. Enter your institutional email address
6. Complete the account creation process

After creation, use your institutional email address to log into [Passport](https://github.com/DNAstack/dnastack-product-docs/blob/main/docs/passport/broken-reference/README.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
Once your Google Account is set up, you can use it across all DNAstack products through Passport authentication.
{% endhint %}

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.omics.ai/products/passport/register-account-with-google.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
