# Requesting Additional Service Access
By default, every new member of **The Nest** receives instant access to our core platforms: **Matrix**, **Vaultwarden**, **Forgejo**, **Foundry VTT**, and this documentation site[cite: 2].
Looking for access to additional applications[cite: 2]? You can easily request access directly through our automated Matrix access bot[cite: 2]!
---
## How to Request Access
Requesting entry to additional services takes just a few simple steps inside Matrix[cite: 2].
### Step 1: Open a Chat with the Access Bot
Start a direct message (DM) in Matrix with[cite: 2]:
`@access-bot:starling.mynest.love`[cite: 2]
### Step 2: View Available Service Groups
In your private chat with the bot, send the following command[cite: 2]:
`!groups`[cite: 2]
The bot will reply with a list of all available service groups you can request access to[cite: 2].
### Step 3: Submit Your Request
Identify the group name you would like to join, then send[cite: 2]:
`!request <group_name>`[cite: 2]
*(Be sure to replace `<group_name>` with the exact name provided by the bot in Step 2[cite: 2].)*
> [!NOTE]
> **What Happens Next?**
> An administrator will automatically receive a notification with your request and will approve or review it shortly[cite: 2].

## Responsibilities & Usage
