<Badge className="hny-badge-enterprise-addon" stroke>Ent+</Badge>

<Note>
  This feature is available as an add-on for the [Honeycomb Enterprise plan](https://www.honeycomb.io/pricing/).
  Please contact your Honeycomb account team for details.
</Note>

Pipeline Manager runs as a hosted service powered by Bindplane.
A Honeycomb license key activates Pipeline Manager with Honeycomb-specific branding, capabilities, and configuration.

## Before you begin

To set up Pipeline Manager, you'll need a Honeycomb license key provided by your Honeycomb account team.
If you don't have one, contact your account team to get started.

## Set up your account

1. Navigate to [app.bindplane.com/signup](https://app.bindplane.com/signup) and create an account.
2. Verify your email address if prompted, then sign in.
3. On the **Create a New Organization** screen, enter your Honeycomb team account name for the organization name.
4. Select the **I have a license key** link and enter the license key provided by your Honeycomb account team.
5. Accept the End User License Agreement and select **Get Started**.
6. The Honeycomb branding appears, confirming your account is activated.

<Note>
  If you skip the license key step during organization creation, you can apply it later.
  Navigate to **Organization Settings** and select the **Have a license key?** link.
  Enter your key and save.
  You may need to refresh the page or sign out and back in for the Honeycomb branding to appear.
</Note>

## Next steps

After activating your account, Pipeline Manager displays a Quick Start Guide that walks you through installing your first agent, setting up a configuration, and rolling it out.

Follow the steps in the Quick Start Guide to start collecting telemetry.
You can also explore [Sources](/send-data/telemetry-pipeline/sources/), [Processors](/send-data/telemetry-pipeline/processors/), and [Destinations](/send-data/telemetry-pipeline/destinations/) to configure how your data is collected, refined, and routed.

To add teammates, invite them from Organization Settings or [set up SSO](https://docs.bindplane.com/feature-guides/saas-single-sign-on) for centralized access management.
