Abstract: Embodiments describe registration of document services for a document management system. A server receives a request to register a service provided by the system, and generates an activation code for the service. The server identifies a web address for activating the service, and provides the web address and the code to a user. The server provides a first web page to the user that requests the code from the user. The server receives an entry via the first web page and determines if the entry matches the code. The server provides a second web page that identifies the service and includes an option to activate the service when the entry matches, and notifies the user of an error when the entry does not match. The server receives a request via the second web page to activate the service, and enables the service for the user at the system.
