Key Moments - 3 Insights

Why do I see a sign-in page after clicking 'Go to Console'?

Because you are not signed in yet, the console requires authentication before showing your projects (see execution_table step 3).

What happens if I don't select or create a project?

You cannot access project features; the console waits for you to choose or create a project (see execution_table step 5).

Can I access features without signing in?

No, signing in is mandatory to access any project features (see execution_table step 4).
