Docker ID and Docker Hub accounts

You can search for Docker images and pull them from Docker Hub without signing in or even having an account. However, to push images, leave comments, or to star a repository, you need a free Docker ID to log in to Docker Hub.

Once you have a personal Docker ID, you can also create or join Docker Hub Organizations and Teams.

Register for a Docker ID

If you're not already logged in, go to Docker Hub to use the sign up page. A valid email address is required to register. A verification email is sent to this address to activate your account.

You cannot log in to your Docker ID until you verify the email address.

Confirm your email

Once you've filled in the registration form, check your email for a welcome message asking for confirmation so we can activate your account.

Login

After you complete the account creation process, you can log in any time using the web console with your Docker ID:

Login using the web console

Or via the command line with the docker login command:

$ docker login

Your Docker ID is now active and ready to use.

Note: Your authentication credentials will be stored in the .dockercfg authentication file in your home directory.

Upgrading your account

Free Hub accounts include one private registry. If you need more private registries, you can upgrade your account to a paid plan directly from the Hub.

Password reset process

If you can't access your account for some reason, you can reset your password from the Password Reset page.
