Creating an account

Purpose: explain how new users get into the app. The exact path depends on whether your organization invites you or you use a public signup link.

Who can use this

New staff and students (where allowed) who do not yet have a working sign-in.

Steps

Watch for an invitation email from your program or IT. Follow the link; it should open EnsembleVault in the browser.
Set a password (or use “Sign in with Google” or similar) when the page asks. Choose something you do not reuse on random websites.
If prompted, confirm your name and organization so your admin can match you to the right facility (site).
Complete any first-time profile fields your org requires, then go to the dashboard.

Screenshot: the invitation email and the “set password” screen—replace when the product copy changes.

Expected result

You can sign in and see a dashboard. Your name and organization should look correct in Profile or Settings (wording may vary by release).

What happens next

Signing in (return visits).
If your dashboard looks empty, read Permissions errors.

Common problems

The link says expired — ask an admin to send a new invite.
Wrong school or “no facility” — do not guess; ask an admin to assign you to the correct site.
