Instances

Instances are the sites, apps and APIs in your account. This page covers creating them, finding and organizing them, signing in to their admin, and deleting them.

Every instance runs either on staging, a free private space to build and test, or on production, for real users on your own domain and a paid hosting plan. What you can do depends on your role: an Editor can create staging instances, and creating or deleting a production instance needs Admin.
