Account and security

Your account holds your endpoints, API keys, credit and settings. You sign in with your email address and a short code we email you. There is no password.

Sign in or create an account

The same steps work whether or not you already have an account. A new email address simply starts a new, empty account.

1. Go to bitsrun.com and select Sign in.
2. Type your email address and continue.
3. Open the email from BitsRun App and copy the code.
4. Type the code under Code from the email. You are in.

The code works once and expires after a few minutes. If it expired, select Send a new code. If you typed the wrong address, select Use a different email.

Where you can sign in

Sign out

• Web: select your initial at the top right of the dashboard, then Sign out.
• Apps (coming soon): Account, then Sign out.
• Command line: bitsrun logout signs this computer out.

To sign out a computer or phone you no longer have, see Sessions and devices.

Keep your account safe

• Protect your email. Whoever reads your inbox can sign in. Use a strong password and two-step verification on your email account.
• Use limited API keys. Give each app its own key, limited to one endpoint where possible. See API keys.
• Read our security emails. We email you whenever a new command line signs in. If it was not you, revoke the session right away.
• Review your devices now and then and remove anything you do not recognize.
