# Prepare resources needed for login processing

Prepare resources for issuing anonymous accounts and logging in




To start using the GS2-Account service, you need to add a namespace.

Namespace (namespace) is a mechanism to allow the same service to be used for different purposes within a single project.
Within different namespaces, the same service is treated as a completely different data space.

Now, using the sample template, add game-0001 to the GS2-Account namespace name and
issue the encryption key that will be used to authenticate the account and make it possible to create a new account.

### Create resources with GS2-Deploy

GS2-Deploy is a service for collectively creating and managing resources for multiple services based on template files (YAML format).

1. Log in to the [Management Console](https://app.gs2.io).
2. Select `Deploy` from the left menu and click `Stacks`.
3. Click `Create new stack`.
4. Enter an arbitrary name such as `initialize-account` in `Stack name`.
5. Copy and paste the following template content into the `Template data` field.
6. Click the `Create` button.

It will take a few seconds to several tens of seconds to complete. It is complete when the status becomes `CREATE_COMPLETE`.


**YAML**
```yaml
GS2TemplateFormatVersion: "2019-05-01"
Description: GS2-Account initialize template Version 2010-06-26

Globals:
  Alias:
    AccountNamespaceName: game-0001
    KeyNamespaceAccountAuthentication: account-encryption-key-namespace
    KeyAccountAuthentication: account-encryption-key

Resources:
  KeyNamespaceAccountAuthentication:
    Type: GS2::Key::Namespace
    Properties:
      Name: ${KeyNamespaceAccountAuthentication}

  KeyAccountAuthentication:
    Type: GS2::Key::Key
    Properties:
      NamespaceName: ${KeyNamespaceAccountAuthentication}
      Name: ${KeyAccountAuthentication}
    DependsOn:
      - KeyNamespaceAccountAuthentication

  AccountNamespace:
    Type: GS2::Account::Namespace
    Properties:
      Name: ${AccountNamespaceName}

Outputs:
  AccountNamespaceName: !GetAttr AccountNamespace.Item.Name
  KeyAccountAuthenticationKeyId: !GetAttr KeyAccountAuthentication.Item.KeyId
```
