## Create a new customer

Partners and the [movingimage Professional Services team](mailto:support@movingimage.com) can create customers in WebcastManager. To do this:

1. Click **Customers** in the navigation panel. The editing area contains a list of all previously created customers.
2. Click the [Create] button to open a form. ![](https://doc.movingimage.com/download/attachments/5079550/Webcast_customernewformorigin.png?version=1&modificationDate=1695741417000&api=v2)
3. Enter the customer's name and default language. This language setting will be used when creating new streaming servers.

> Fields marked with "*" are required information.
4. Select the customer type: Partner or Consumer.
  - Partner - these customer types can create customers of both "Partner" and "Consumer" types. These can be considered the parent of any customers created by them.
  - Consumer - these customer types cannot create additional customers.
5. (Optional) Enable Single Sign-on and map roles to user groups. You can also enable GDPR for this customer (see the "[Single Sign-on](/v1/docs/single-sign-on)" and "[GDPR](https://doc.movingimage.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=10490201)" chapters for more information).
  - If you enable Single Sign-on, you can also map roles to user groups. See the [Roles](https://doc.movingimage.com/display/WM/Roles) chapter for more information.
6. (Optional) Enable HMAC authorization as a default authorization method.
  - **Note that this setting will only apply to newly created events.** The HMAC secret is a shared secret key that will be generated client-side.
7. (Optional) Enable [Hive Streaming,](https://www.hivestreaming.com/) [Kollective Technologies](https://kollective.com/) integration. These integrations enable them to stream webcasts on internal networks. Partner customer types will display an option to enter a Hive Partner ID or Kollective API Endpoint and Token. If a Hive Partner ID is provided, any consumers created by that partner will display a "Hive customer" checkbox. If checked, those consumers can then enable a Hive Streaming URL when [editing or creating language sets](https://doc.movingimage.com/display/WM/Languages) for their webcast.
8. (Optional) Enable RAMP technologies integration for peer-to-peer eCDN distribution. Note that you have to first log into your vBrick account to obtain the
  - host name (usually *.[vbrick.com](http://vbrick.com)[)](http://vbrick.com),
  - JWT key name
  - API key
  - API secret.

We no longer support Lumen peer-to-peer eCDN distribution.

Note that [peer-to-peer distribution](https://doc.movingimage.com/display/WM/Security) can be enabled or disabled for individual Webcast events.
9. (Optional) Select video conference connectors, if configured (maximum of 4).
10. Click the [Save] button to save your entries. The newly created customer will appear immediately in the list of all customers. Click an entry in the list to edit it later.
