How to Login to the Browser Version of the Azumuta App Using an Identifier

What Is an Identifier? #

Another possible method to login 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 login to an Azumuta workspace.

Identifiers can be used by operators to login 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 login to the browser version of the app. If you want to learn more about using an identifier to login to the Azumuta app, click here.

An identifier is a convenient login method, especially if the operator doesn’t have their own individual Azumuta user account and shares their user account with other operators.

How does it work? Well, in a nutshell:

• Step 1: You (as an admin) set up the identifier code for the operator.
• Step 2: You share the identifier code and the unique device link with the operator.
• Step 3: You enable the “login with identifier” feature on the operator’s device.
• Step 4: The operator will use the identifier code to login to their Azumuta workspace.

The steps above are meant to set up this feature for the first time. If the “login with identifier” feature has been set up, then the operator who wishes to use this feature will only need to do Step 4.

We will explain each step further in the guide sections below:

Step 1: You Set Up the Identifier Code for the Operator #

The first thing that you need to do is to set up an identifier code for the operator. Here’s how to do it:

1. Click on “Users” under “Management”.
2. Click on “Overview”.
3. Click on the three-dot icon next to the operator’s user account.
4. Click on “Edit user”.
5. Under the “Login identifier” field, type in the identifier code that will be used by the operator.
6. Click on “Save”.

Step 2: You Share the Identifier Code and the Unique Device Link With The Operator #

Afterward, you should share two things with the operator:

• The identifier code that was made in step 1.
• The unique link for the device that will be used by the operator. To see how you can get this link, please follow the steps below:

1. Click on “Devices” under “Management”.
2. Click on “Copy unique device link”.
3. The unique device link is now copied into your clipboard. Share it with the operator.

Step 3: You Enable Logging in With an Identifier on the Operator’s Device #

The next step is to enable the “login with identifier” feature on the operator’s device. This step consists of 2 parts:

• The operator requests that the “login with identifier” feature be enabled.
• You approve the operator’s request.

How to Request the Login with Identifier Feature to Be Enabled #

1. The operator should open the unique device link that you shared in step 2.
2. The operator should click on “Sign in with identifier (needs setup)”, as shown below:
3. The operator should show you the numbers that appear on their screen (as shown below):

You Approve the Operator’s Request #

Afterward, you should approve the operator’s request. Here’s how to do it:

1. Click on “Devices” under “Management”.
2. Click on “Setup “Sign in with identifier””.
3. See the numbers that appear on your screen. Are they the same as the numbers that were shown by the operator? If so, then click on “Approve”. These numbers are meant to ensure that you only approve the correct requests.

Step 4: The Operator Logins Using an Identifier #

After you’ve completed step 3, the “login with identifier” feature is now enabled on the operator’s device. Here’s how the operator can login using an identifier:

1. On the login page, the operator should click on “Sign in with identifier”.
2. The operator should then type in the identifier code that you shared in step 2, and press “Enter” on the keyboard.

How to Remove the Login With an Identifier Option #

Would you like to remove the option to login with an identifier? Follow the steps below to do so:

1. Click on “Devices” under “Management”.
2. Click on “Copy unique device link” next to the device that contains the “login with identifier” feature that you would like to remove.
3. Open that link on another tab.
4. Click on the three-dot icon on the top right corner of the screen.
5. Click on “Reset “Sign in with identifier””.
6. Click on “OK”.
