## 5. Wait for sync

Inboxapp starts syncing automatically. When sync finishes, the account is available in your workspace. See [How Inboxapp syncs your DMs](/help/getting-started-with-inboxapp/how-inboxapp-syncs-your-dms-and-what-to-expect).

If you use XChat, you’ll be asked for your **XChat PIN** — [What is XChat](/help/getting-started-with-inboxapp/what-is-xchat-and-how-use-it-with-our-platform).
