# Affinidi Portal

> Manage your projects and integrations using Affinidi Portal.

Affinidi Portal is the web console where you create and manage the resources your applications use across Affinidi Trust Fabric, Affinidi Radix, Affinidi Elements, and Affinidi Forge.

The sidebar groups the products by suite, and each product page has its own docs. Around the products, Affinidi Portal gives you the same tools everywhere:

- Projects: group your resources. Every product page shows the resources of your active project. See [Projects and access](/dev-tools/affinidi-portal/projects-and-access.md).

- Plans and credits: each project has a plan and a balance of Affinidi Credits that its API calls use. See [Plans, credits, and limits](/dev-tools/affinidi-portal/plans-credits-and-limits.md).

- Access: share a project with your team, and use Personal Access Tokens for automated access.

## Get started with your first project

- [Sign in to Affinidi Portal](/dev-tools/affinidi-portal/sign-in-to-portal.md) with Affinidi Login, Apple, Google, GitHub, or Microsoft. On your first sign-in, Affinidi Portal creates a project named Default project for you.

- Open the Dashboard and choose a product under Get Started, or select it in the sidebar.

- When you need a separate project for another application, [create a project](/dev-tools/affinidi-portal/work-with-projects.md#create-a-project).

## Account Info

Open the Account menu at the top right of Affinidi Portal and select Account Info to see your User Principal ID.

Your User Principal ID is your unique identifier as a developer in the Affinidi Trust Network. Every resource you create is linked to it. Other project owners use it to grant you access to their projects through policies. See [Defining a policy](/dev-tools/affinidi-cli/manage-iam.md#defining-a-policy) for how that works.

Select the User Principal ID to copy it to your clipboard.

A decentralised identifier (DID) belongs to your Affinidi Vault and is separate from your User Principal ID. Affinidi Portal reads it when you sign in with Affinidi Login. You need your Vault’s DID to test Credential Issuance and Affinidi Iota Framework configurations from Affinidi Portal. To find it:

- Open [Affinidi Vault](https://vault.affinidi.com) and sign in.

- Go to Settings.

- Scroll to the bottom of the page and copy your DID.
