oCIS has the option to create demo users during the first startup. These enable you to do quick testing and developing.

{{< hint info >}}
To create the demo users, run the initial setup step with an additional environment variable.
`IDM_CREATE_DEMO_USERS=true ./bin/ocis server` will generate the demo users listed in the table below. By default, it only generates the admin and one user for IDP and Reva respectively.

Following users are available in the demo set:

You may also want to run oCIS with only your custom users by [deleting the demo users]({{< ref "../deployment#delete-demo-users" >}}).
