Signing In

Signing in to livediagram is entirely optional. The canvas works without an account, so there is never a sign-in wall in front of the editor. An account simply adds something useful on top: it keeps your diagrams with you across browsers and devices instead of being tied to one guest identity.

Creating an account

There are two routes:

• Sign up at /get-started. You provide your name and email, then confirm with a 6-digit code. Some deployments also offer a Google sign-in button.
• Sign in at /sign-in if you already have an account, using the same email-code (or Google) flow.

Accounts are free, with no paid tier and nothing to upgrade. After signing in, a returning user lands on the Explorer to see their existing diagrams, while a brand-new sign-up lands on the new-diagram flow to start building.

Sign-in is an optional capability of livediagram. On self-hosted instances where accounts have not been configured, the sign-in pages show a friendly "not enabled" notice with a "Continue as guest" option, and the editor works exactly as before.

Your guest diagrams come with you

The best part of signing up is that you keep the work you have already done. When you create an account, the diagrams you built as a guest migrate into it automatically, so nothing is lost.

The migration moves your guest content, including your diagrams, folders, shared-link records, images, and saved preferences, from your per-browser guest id over to your new account. From then on, that content is owned by your account and follows you to any browser or device where you sign in.

The process runs once, the first time you are signed in, and is safe to repeat: a second attempt simply moves nothing. Once your account syncs everything, the Explorer's sign-in nudge disappears, because there is nothing left to prompt you about.
