{% endhint %}

### **Creating a Squad**

1. Connect a Solana wallet to the [v3.squads.so](https://v3.squads.so/squads) by clicking on the "Connect Wallet" button.

We support the **following wallets**:

* Phantom
* Backpack
* Glow
* Solflare
* Coinbase Wallet
* Ledger
* Exodus

3\. Enter Squad details such as Squad name, profile picture, and description.

* We support JPEG, PNG, or GIFs formats under 3MB.
* The Squad's picture, name, and description can be changed after deployment.

4\. Add owners to your Squad by their public keys and set a confirmation threshold.&#x20;

* The confirmation threshold is the number of approvals necessary from Squad owners for transactions to be executed. In the example below, 2/3 of wallets on the multisig will need to approve for a transaction to be executed. &#x20;
* You can add an unlimited amount of initial owners, but we recommend keeping the amount below 20 for the optimal experience. After the initial set-up, each new owner will need to be approved by the Squad based on the confirmation threshold you configure. When all owners are added, review the information and click "Next."&#x20;

5\. Review your Squad's details and if everything looks correct, click “Confirm”.

* Squad deployment cost is approximately between 0.0025 - 0.0045 SOL depending on the amount of the initial owners (Network fees, not Squads Protocol ones).
* The fee includes Solana rent fee and 0.001 SOL, which will be deposited into your Squad upon creation. This is done to make your Squad's address recognizable by individual wallets for sending assets.&#x20;

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.squads.so/squads-v3-docs/getting-started/create-a-squad.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
