The Registration API is a beta program. Linden Lab is unable to provide support or technical advice, and the Registration API sample code and documentation require effort to implement successfully. We are limiting new accounts for the RegistrationAPI at this time.

The Registration API allows you to
- Register residents for Second Life from your own website
- Track people registering from your site
- Send them to a location of your choice when they first enter Second Life
The Registration API is useful for creating and managing your community in Second Life, for maintaining your identity from your website through Second Life registration into Second Life, tracking your community in Second Life.
The Registration API provides a way for the registrant to interact with the Linden Lab registration system. Specifically, it enables creation of a unique Second Life name and password. It provides Linden Lab with the same information required for registrations through the SecondLife.com website. At the end of registration, your customer must download the Second Life client, install and run it. At that time, they will be registered with the account they created on your website and will start Second Life in a location you specify.
You can use the Registration API to create Second Life accounts within your own registration process or website. You can customize the Second Life registration process to capture additional information or to fit your registration process.
At this time, the Registration API does not enable assignment to groups, provision of inventory, or creating attachments. These and other features are future features.
Linden Lab has put documentation of the Registration API on this wiki to enable you to add updates, suggestions and tips to improve the experience for everyone.
