# ADMIN_EMAIL_INVALID

`nextly users:create-admin` was given no email, or one that is not an email address.

## Cause

`nextly users:create-admin` was given no email, or one that is not an email address.

`nextly users:create-admin` needs the first administrator's email, from `--email` or, in a terminal, a prompt. None was given, or the value is not an email address.

## Fix

* Pass the email: `nextly users:create-admin --email ada@example.com --name Ada`.

## Example

```text
✗ No valid email was given for the administrator.
  Why:  `ada@` is not an email address.
  Next: Give a valid email with `--email`.
