+
+Ready to get real-time visibility into your entire infrastructure with Netdata Cloud? This guide will walk you through
+the onboarding process, such as setting up your Space and War Room and connecting your first nodes.
+
+## Before you start
+
+Before you get started with Netdata Cloud, you should have the open-source Netdata monitoring agent installed. See our
+[installation guide](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/get-started.mdx) for details.
+
+If you already have the Netdata agent running on your node(s), make sure to update it to v1.32 or higher. Read the
+[updating documentation](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/packaging/installer/UPDATE.md) for information
+on how to update based on the method you used to install Netdata on that node.
+
+## Begin the onboarding process
+
+Get started by signing in to Netdata. Read
+the [sign in](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/manage/sign-in.mdx) doc for details on the
+authentication methods we use.
+
+<Link to="https://app.netdata.cloud" className="group">
+    <button className="relative text-text bg-gray-200 px-4 py-2 rounded">
+        <span className="z-10 relative font-semibold group-hover:text-gray-100">Sign in to Netdata</span>
+        <div className="opacity-0 group-hover:opacity-100 transition absolute z-0 inset-0 bg-gradient-to-r from-green to-green-lighter rounded"></div>
+    </button>
+</Link>
+
+Once signed in with your preferred method, a
+General [War Room](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/war-rooms.md) and
+a [Space](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/spaces.md)
+named for your login email are automatically created. You can configure more Spaces and War Rooms to help you you
+organize your team
+and the many systems that make up your infrastructure. For example, you can put product and infrastructure SRE teams in
+separate
+Spaces, and then use War Rooms to group nodes by their service (`nginx`), purpose (`webservers`), or physical
+location (`IAD`).
+
+Don't worry! You can always add more Spaces and War Rooms later if you decide to reorganize how you use Netdata Cloud.
+
+## Connect your nodes
+
+From within the created War Rooms, Netdata Cloud prompts you
+to [connect](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md) your nodes to Netdata Cloud. Non-admin
+users can users can select from existing nodes already connected to the space or select an admin from a provided list to
+connect node.
+You can connect any node running Netdata, whether it's a physical or virtual machine, a Docker container, IoT device,
+and more.
+
+The connection process securely connects any node to Netdata Cloud using
+the [Agent-Cloud link](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/aclk/README.md). By
+connecting a node, you prove you have write and administrative access to that node. Connecting to Cloud also prevents
+any third party
+from connecting a node that you control. Keep in mind:
+
+- _You can only connect any given node in a single Space_. You can, however, add that connected node to multiple War
+  Rooms
+  within that one Space.
+- You must repeat the connection process on every node you want to add to Netdata Cloud.
+
+<Callout type="notice">
+
+**Netdata Cloud ensures your data privacy by not storing metrics data from your nodes**. See our statement on Netdata
+Cloud [data privacy](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/aclk/README.md/#data-privacy) for details on the
+data that's streamed from your nodes and the
+[connecting to cloud](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md) doc for details about why we
+implemented the connection process and the encryption methods we use to secure your data in transit.
+
+</Callout>
+
+To connect a node, select which War Rooms you want to add this node to with the dropdown, then copy the script given by
+Netdata Cloud into your node's terminal.
+
+Hit **Enter**. The script should return `Agent was successfully claimed.`. If the claiming script returns errors, or if
+you don't see the node in your Space after 60 seconds, see 
+the [troubleshooting information](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md#troubleshooting).
+
+Repeat this process with every node you want to add to Netdata Cloud during onboarding. You can also add more nodes once
+you've finished onboarding by clicking the **Connect Nodes** button in 
+the [Space management area](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/spaces.md/#manage-spaces).
+
+### Alternatives and other operating systems
+
+**Docker**: You can execute the claiming script Netdata running as a Docker container, or attach the claiming script
+when creating the container for the first time, such as when you're spinning up ephemeral containers. See
+the [connect an agent running in Docker](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md#connect-an-agent-running-in-docker)
+documentation for details.
+
+**Without root privileges**: If you want to connect an agent without using root privileges, see our [connect
+documentation](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md#connect-an-agent-without-root-privileges).
+
+**With a proxy**: If your node uses a proxy to connect to the internet, you need to configure the node's proxy settings.
+See
+our [connect through a proxy](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/claim/README.md#connect-through-a-proxy)
+doc for details.
+
+## Add bookmarks to essential resources
+
+When an anomaly or outage strikes, your team needs to access other essential resources quickly. You can use Netdata
+Cloud's bookmarks to put these tools in one accessible place. Bookmarks are shared between all War Rooms in a Space, so
+any users in your Space will be able to see and use them.
+
+Bookmarks can link to both internal and external resources. You can bookmark your app's status page for quick updates
+during an outage, a messaging system on your organization's intranet, or other tools your team uses to respond to
+changes in your infrastructure.
+
+To add a new bookmark, click on the **Add bookmark** link. In the panel, name the bookmark, include its URL, and write a
+short description for your team's reference.
+
+## What's next?
+
+You finish onboarding
+by [inviting members of your team](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/manage/invite-your-team.md)
+to your Space. You
+can also invite them later. At this point, you're ready to use Cloud.
+
+Next, learn about the organization and interfaces
+behind [Spaces](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/spaces.md)
+and [War
+Rooms](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/war-rooms.md).
+
+If you're ready to explore, check out how to use
+the [Overview dashboard](https://github.com/netdata/netdata/blob/master/docs/cloud/visualize/overview.md), which is the
+default view for each new War Room you create.
