title: npm-adduser
section: 1
description: Add a registry user account
---
### Synopsis
```bash
npm adduser
alias: add-user
```
Note: This command is unaware of workspaces.
### Description
Create a new user in the specified registry, and save the credentials to
the `.npmrc` file. If no registry is specified, the default registry
will be used (see [`registry`](/using-npm/registry)).
When using `legacy` for your `auth-type`, the username, password, and
email are read in from prompts.
### Configuration
#### `registry`
* Default: "https://registry.npmjs.org/"
* Type: URL
The base URL of the npm registry.
#### `scope`
* Default: the scope of the current project, if any, or ""
* Type: String
Associate an operation with a scope for a scoped registry.
Useful when logging in to or out of a private registry:
```
# log in, linking the scope to the custom registry
npm login --scope=@mycorp --registry=https://registry.mycorp.com
# log out, removing the link and the auth token
npm logout --scope=@mycorp
```
This will cause `@mycorp` to be mapped to the registry for future
installation of packages specified according to the pattern
`@mycorp/package`.
This will also cause `npm init` to create a scoped package.
```
# accept all defaults, and create a package named "@foo/whatever",
# instead of just named "whatever"
npm init --scope=@foo --yes
```
#### `auth-type`
* Default: "web"
* Type: "legacy" or "web"
What authentication strategy to use with `login`. Note that if an `otp`
config is given, this value will always be set to `legacy`.
