# Creating a Policy with the Policy Configurator

Build a policy workflow step by step in the Policy Configurator.

This guide walks you through building a Guardian policy in the Policy Configurator. You will create a draft, configure its workflow, and connect each policy block.

Work through the steps in order. Each step builds on the configuration before it.

Before you begin, sign in as a **Standard Registry User**. Only Standard Registry Users can create policies.

For an overview of the editor and its core concepts, see [Policy Configurator](/guardian/workspace/policies/policy-creation/policy-configurator.md).
