How to get the System Administrator Account while signing up for new instance in the Quebec release

Hi Community,

I am new to the ServiceNow Platform and to learn the overall system and especially the CMDB Platform. I am following a Linkedin course on ServiceNow basic administration. The course instructor has developed the New York release course and I have checked the New York release is not supported right now.

My main question is that I did not get the system administrator account when I signed up, rather than a normal user account. I just want to follow the course content step by step. Could the community experts kindly help me with how to get the system administrator account?

I am also unable to create new users on this instance??

Hi Bilal. I've found a way out for this. 

Steps to help you :
 
1. Log in to the developer site - Login
2. On the rightmost corner of the screen below the header - you will be able to see a dropdown with your profile settings. Click on the dropdown.

3. Under Instance Actions > Change User Role > Admin > Click on button - Change User Role

4. Close this window and in the dropdown again - please click on Start Building

This will re-initiate the login and will have changed your user profile to Administrator rather than creator user. I'm confident that this will solve your query.

Hope this helps you.

Thanks Atul, I was just new to the platform so got confused but like @Dr Atul G- LNG mentioned above I just moved on and I was on the same page but with new view.

So your issue / query is closed.
