What Is an Identifier? #
Another possible method to log in to an Azumuta workspace is by using an identifier. An identifier is a personal code that is commonly used to authenticate an Azumuta user, allowing them to log in to an Azumuta workspace.
Identifiers can be used by operators to log in to an Azumuta workspace, be it on the app or the browser version of the app.
In this guide webpage, we will only focus on using an identifier to log in to the app. If you want to learn more about using an identifier to log in to the browser version of the app, click here.
An identifier is a convenient login method, especially if your operators don’t have their own individual devices and share them with other operators.
The Setup Process #
Phase 1: Enabling the “Sign in With Identifier” Feature on the Operator’s Device #
The first phase involves enabling the “Sign in with identifier” feature for the operator’s device. Please note that you will only need to do this once for each device.
In the first phase, as an admin, you must show a special QR code to the operator in order to enable the “Sign in with identifier” feature on the operator’s device. Then, the operator must scan that special QR code using their device.
How to Open this Special QR Code #
- Click on “Devices” under “Management”.
- Click on “Setup “Sign in with identifier””.
The Operator Scans this Special QR Code #
- Now, the operator should open the login page on their device and click on “Sign in with identifier”, as shown in the image below.
- The operator should scan the QR code that was generated by you.
This QR code is only valid for one minute before it automatically refreshes.
Phase 2: The Admin Creates an Identifier Code for the Operator #
The second phase is to create an identifier code for that operator. As an admin, you will only need to do this once for each operator.
- Click on “Users” under “Management”.
- Click on “Overview”.
- Click on the three-dot icon next to the user account for which you want to create an identifier.
- Click on “Edit user”.
- Under the “Login identifier” field, type in the identifier code.
- Click on “Save”.
- Share this identifier code with that operator.
Note: Each operator must have their own unique identifier code. Two operators can't share the same identifier code.
Logging in to the App Using an Identifier as an Operator #
After the setup process has been completed, the option to type in the identifier code will appear on the login screen on the operator’s device, as shown below:
The operator should input the identifier code (which was created & shared by you on phase 2) in that field
How to Remove the Login With an Identifier Option #
Would you like to remove the option to log in with an identifier on an operator’s device? Then you should tell that operator to disable this feature on their device. Here are the steps to disable this feature:
- On that operator device’s login screen, click on the three-dot icon at the top right corner of the screen.
- Click on “Reset “Sign in with identifier””.
- Click on “OK”.
