## Auto-joining a Cluster on Start ## Auto-joining a Cluster on Start
Ideally, whenever a new node is brought up in your datacenter, it should Ideally, whenever a new node is brought up in your datacenter, it should automatically join the Consul cluster without human intervention. Consul facilitates auto-join by enabling the auto-discovery of instances in AWS or Google Cloud with a given tag key/value. To use the integration, add the [`retry_join_ec2`](/docs/agent/options.html?#retry_join_ec2) or the [`retry_join_gce`](/docs/agent/options.html?#retry_join_gce) nested object to your Consul configuration file. This will allow a new node to join the cluster without any hardcoded configuration. Alternatively, you can join a cluster at startup using the [`-join` flag](/docs/agent/options.html#_join) or [`start_join` setting](/docs/agent/options.html#start_join) with hardcoded addresses of other known Consul agents.
automatically join the Consul cluster without human intervention. To
accomplish this, you can use
[Atlas by HashiCorp](https://atlas.hashicorp.com?utm_source=oss&utm_medium=getting-started-join&utm_campaign=consul)
and the [`-atlas-join` flag](/docs/agent/options.html#_atlas_join).
An example configuration is shown below:
```text
$ consul agent -atlas-join \
-atlas=ATLAS_USERNAME/infrastructure \
-atlas-token="YOUR_ATLAS_TOKEN"
```
To get an Atlas username and token,
[create an account](https://atlas.hashicorp.com/account/new?utm_source=oss&utm_medium=getting-started-join&utm_campaign=consul)
and replace the respective values in your Consul configuration with your
credentials. Now, whenever a new node comes up with a Consul agent, it
will automatically join your Consul cluster without any hardcoded
configuration.
Alternatively, you can join a cluster at startup using the
[`-join` flag](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options.html#_join) or
[`start_join` setting](https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/options.html#start_join)
with hardcoded addresses of other known Consul agents.

There are two options for running a web UI for Consul: using
[Atlas by HashiCorp](https://atlas.hashicorp.com) to host the
dashboard for you or self-hosting the
[open-source UI](/downloads.html).
## Atlas-hosted Dashboard

To set up the Atlas UI for Consul, you must add two fields to your
configuration: the
[name of your Atlas infrastructure](/docs/agent/options.html#_atlas)
and [your Atlas token](/docs/agent/options.html#_atlas_token). Below is
an example command-line invocation of the Consul agent providing these
settings:
```text
$ consul agent -atlas=ATLAS_USERNAME/demo -atlas-token="ATLAS_TOKEN"
```
To get an Atlas username and token,
[create an account](https://atlas.hashicorp.com/account/new?utm_source=oss&utm_medium=getting-started-ui&utm_campaign=consul)
and replace the respective values in your Consul configuration with
your credentials.
