# Request a connection or subscription

This article is for existing customers who want to either:

- implement a <u>**new connection**</u> 
- expand an existing connection by requesting a <u>**new two-party subscription**</u>

> **For beta cloud connectivity users**
>
> If you want add a one-party subscription to a cloud destination, [learn how to create a subscription](/how-to-use-redox/manage-your-redox-setup/create-a-subscription) instead. 

## Prerequisites

- You must have completed onboarding to Redox and implemented at least one connection.
- [Use Network Explorer](https://redoxengine.com/explore/) to see which systems Redox already integrates with. 
- If you can’t find the system you’re looking for, [review our process for adding a new system adapter](/implementation-guide/add-a-new-system-adapter-to-redox) to our network.

4. The <u>Connection Request Form</u> opens. Fill out the required fields in the form.
   1. On the <u>Connection scope</u> tab, specify whether you’re requesting a **new connection** or a **new subscription** with an existing connection. 
5. When you finish filling out the form, submit the connection request form.

Submitting a new connection request form triggers a <u>**Project Request Form**</u> in the Redox Help Center and an email to notify the partner organization you requested to connect with. As the logged-in user that initiated the request, you’re copied on that email.
