Log on to Dundas BI
1. Overview
Since Dundas BI is web-based, all you need is a web browser to get started. Just navigate to the Dundas BI website address and log in with your account information.
Depending on how Dundas BI has been installed or hosted, the URL could look like any of the following:
- https://servername/
- http://servername:8000/
- https://servername.example.com/
If you're logged onto a Windows server computer where Dundas BI was installed, you can also launch the Dundas BI instance from the Start menu.
2. Dundas BI login screen
When you navigate to the URL for Dundas BI, you should see the login screen.
Enter your Dundas BI Login Name and Password if you have them, and then click the Log in button.
If you have just installed Dundas BI yourself, the default logon name is admin and the password is the one that you specified during the installation procedure.
You can also register for a new account as shown below, or contact your Dundas BI administrator directly to obtain a login name and password if you prefer.
2.1. Log on using Windows or another provider
Different login options may appear if your Dundas BI instance was configured to use another identity provider.
In this case, click the corresponding button instead, such as Log in with Windows for Windows authentication.
If you are using Windows authentication, an alternative is to specify your domain-qualified Windows user name in the Logon Name field. Depending on the Windows user name format indicated by your Dundas BI administrator, you may use either the default NT4 format (DOMAIN\UserName) or the User Principal Name (UserName@Domain.com).
3. Register for a new account
If you don't have a Dundas BI user account, you can register for one by clicking the Register button. You'll be able to log in after your Dundas BI administrator approves the request.
Under Register new account, enter the following information:
- your email address
- an account name, which you will use to log on with (can be the same as your email address)
- a display name (which is visible to other users)
- an optional message for the administrator to read when seeing your account request
4. Reset your password
If you have forgotten your password, click Forgot password.
