When does new Amex account show up online?

Just got the SPG. It gave me the card number and temporary CID number. I logged into my Amex account online and the new SPG card hasn't shown up there yet. I tried adding it unsucessfully using the card number they gave me. How long does it normally take before it shows up in an existing Amex online account?

 

**Edit to add** Nevermind. I just followed the link from the email to set up online access and got this message: We apologize for the inconvenience. This Card cannot be added to your existing online account at this time. Please try again when you receive your new Card in the mail.

The sticker on the front of your new card will instruct you to activate the card at the AmEx website.

 

After you have activated, there will be prompt to guide you through the process of setting up your online account access and your PIN.

 

You will then have the ability to manage your account immediately.
