# Account Management

When you sign up for Argos, you create an account that manages your projects and subscriptions.

Argos offers three types of plans:

* [Hobby](/docs/learn/billing-and-subscription/subscription/pricing-plans.md#hobby-plan)
* [Pro](/docs/learn/billing-and-subscription/subscription/pricing-plans.md#pro-plan)
* [Enterprise](/docs/learn/billing-and-subscription/subscription/pricing-plans.md#enterprise-plan)

Each plan provides different features and resources to match your needs.

You can sign up with **Google**, **GitHub**, or **GitLab**.

### Signing up with a Git provider

Argos supports the following Git providers:

* [GitHub](/docs/learn/integrations/github-integration.md)
* [GitLab](/docs/learn/integrations/gitlab-integration.md)

When you sign up, you’ll be asked to authorize Argos to access your Git provider.

This connection becomes your default login method.

After signing up, you can manage login methods in your **Personal Settings**.

### Login methods and connections

To manage login connections:

1. Select your profile picture in the top-right corner of the dashboard.
2. Choose **Settings**.
3. Open the **Authentication** section.

#### Logging in with SAML Single Sign-On (SSO)

SAML SSO allows Enterprise users to log in with their organization’s identity provider.

For setup and login instructions, see [SAML Single Sign-On](/docs/learn/account-and-access/saml-single-sign-on.md).

#### Choosing a connection when creating a project

When you create your first project, you’ll be asked to connect a Git provider.

This connection is required and will also serve as a login method.

### Teams

Teams let you collaborate on projects and share resources.

2. Choose **Create new team**.

The trial includes unlimited users and **35,000 free screenshots**.

#### Team membership

### Removing an email address

To remove an address, use the **Delete** option in the dot menu.

> Note: You must set a new primary email before removing the current one.

### Resolving "Account already attached" issues

If you see the error message:

> **Your *****GitHub|GitLab|Google***** account is already linked to another Argos account**

it means the provider account you are trying to connect is already associated with a different Argos account.

#### Steps to fix

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Log out of Argos

Select your avatar in the top-right corner, then select **Log out**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Log back in with your provider

From the login page, choose **Continue with *****GitHub|GitLab|Google***.

This will sign you into the Argos account that currently owns your provider link.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Disconnect or delete the account

Once logged in, select your avatar in the top-right corner, choose **Settings**.

Select **Authentication** from the sidebar.

Find the *GitHub|GitLab|Google* connection, select the vertical ellipsis (⋮), and select **Disconnect**.

Alternatively, if the account is no longer needed, you can delete it entirely from **Account Settings → General**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Log out again

Return to the login page.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Reconnect with the right account

Log back in with the account you want to use.

From **Account Settings → Connections**, link your provider account.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

After completing these steps, your provider account will be linked to the correct Argos account.

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

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://argos-ci.com/docs/learn/account-and-access/account-management.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

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.
