## Creation & Customization

To create a GPSaaS supported registry, select "**Create New**" under **Green Proofs** in the left hand menu.

This will open the creation form.&#x20;

1. The first step under the **Master Configurations** is to enter your Registry's **general details**:

* Create a name for your registry
* Provide a small description of it
* Generate your subdomain

2. The next step contains the  **Registry Configurations**.&#x20;

It allows you to designate someone to be your registry admin, the first person who will administer the platform and use the registry in the beginning.

3. The last step is the customization layer

It involves adding and changing your colour theme and providing a logo for the platform, which will be displayed on the registry once it's been launched.

4. When you are ready, you can save your progress with the "**Save**" button. Your registry is now saved as a Draft. You can keep your registry as a Draft as long as you need. In this case, it will show as draft in the "**Manage**" menu. You can go back to editing your draft at any point.<br>
5. Once you are set on the customization, you can Deploy your registry. It will take a few minutes for your registry to be deployed and running.\

## Launch & Management

The notifications will keep you informed of all status changes for your registries.

You can view all draft and deployed registries in "**Manage**" under **Green Proofs** in the left hand menu.

Once your registry is deployed and running, you will be able to click on the "**Launch**" button and dive into your newly created registry. See the next section to understand the functionalities you can take advantage of.&#x20;

You can delete registries at any point as long as their status is not "**In Progress**". To delete a registry, click the 3 dots menu on the registry you want to delete and select "**Delete**". You will be asked for confirmation.
