# ...in Read Only mode

You can import an XRP Ledger account in either of these two modes:\
\
**Full access** - Choose this option if you would like to be able to interact with your XRPL account. ie. if you would like to create a Trust Line or send XRP to another account.

**Read only** access - Choose this option if you would like to simply follow the activity of an XRPL account. This option does not allow you to sign transactions on your account.

Most people choose to import their accounts with Full access but if you are interested in just monitoring an account's activity, you can import in **Read only** mode.

1\) Launch Xaman then press the **Settings** button, choose **Accounts** then press the **+ Add account** button.
