# Creating a Storage Account

To create a new storage account, use the '**Create storage account**' button at the top-right of the page. You may now add the name of the company to which the storage account belongs, the email of that particular storage account user and either allocate storage as reserved capacity or create them as 'Pay-per-Use'. To assign the latter, simply leave the 'Allocate storage' field 0.

Storage can be allocated in 1 TB/GB increments using the navigation arrows or could be entered manually, up to your contract's remaining capacity. If additional capacity is required, please contact support.

{% hint style="info" %}
The maximum amount of reserved storage you may allocate is the remaining available capacity of your contract with Impossible Cloud on the Distributor you purchased the storage from. In case you need more available capacity, please [reach out](mailto:sales@impossiblecloud.com) our Sales or your Distributor accordingly.
{% endhint %}

Once a storage account is created, they can log in to [Impossible Cloud Storage Console (ICSC)](https://console.impossiblecloud.com/) and [start utilising S3 storage services](https://docs.impossiblecloud.com/impossible-cloud-help/getting-started/readme).

# 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.impossiblecloud.com/partner-portal-help/management-console-guide/using-icmc-as-a-channel-partner/storage-accounts/creating-a-storage-account.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.
