Step 1: Assign your primary administrator

The primary administrator is responsible for the initial setup and for creating other users. If you already nominated yourself as the primary administrator during the purchase process, you can skip this step.

  1. Log in to your PortSwigger account.
  2. On the My account page, select Subscriptions. Note that your Burp Suite Enterprise Edition subscription shows as Inactive.
  3. Click Assign primary administrator.
  4. When prompted, enter the name and email address for the administrator and click ASSIGN ADMINISTRATOR. We send an email invitation to the nominated user containing instructions on how to complete their registration. Until they accept the invitation, your subscription shows as Pending.

Step 2: Launch your instance as the primary administrator

  1. As the nominated primary administrator, look for the email invitation in your inbox.
  2. Click the link in the email to accept the invite, then wait for your instance of Burp Suite Enterprise Edition to build. This may take a few minutes.
  3. When prompted, copy the generated password and save it somewhere secure.
  4. Click the button to go to the login page.
  5. Make a note of the URL. This is the URL for accessing your Burp Suite Enterprise Edition instance. If you lose this, the subscription owner or primary administrator can retrieve it by logging in to their PortSwigger account and copying the Launch link from the list of subscriptions.
  6. Log in using the email address you set as the primary administrator. Your Burp Suite Enterprise Edition instance is now ready to use.
