Set up your access to the Platform, complete your profile, check the site details and invite your team.

Create your account

Section titled “Create your account”

  1. Your Guide-ID onboarding e-mail announces a separate invitation e-mail from the Platform (“You are invited!”). Open that e-mail and click Register now.

  2. Complete the registration form and choose your own password.

  3. Log in at platform.guide-id.com.

Complete your profile

Section titled “Complete your profile”

  1. Click your profile icon in the top-right corner and choose My profile.

  2. In the Personal tab, enter your First name, Last name and Region (locale), then click Save.

  3. In the Email Preferences tab, switch on Receive e-mail for this site for your site, then switch on Hardware Notifications to get a weekly e-mail about device status. These switches apply immediately; there is no Save button.

For all profile options, see Managing Your Profile.

Check the site settings

Section titled “Check the site settings”

  1. Go to Site settings → General in the sidebar.

  2. Check Country, City, Address line 1 and 2, Postal code and Time zone. The time zone matters: it determines what “today” and “yesterday” mean on the Dashboard and Podcatchers pages.

  3. Click Save.

For every field, see General Site Settings.

Invite your team

Section titled “Invite your team”

  1. Go to Site settings → Team in the sidebar.

  2. Click Add new teammate and enter the E-mail address, First name and Last name; optionally pick one or more Functions.

  3. Click Save. The Platform confirms with “Invite sent”.

New colleagues receive an invitation e-mail with a Register now link. Colleagues who already have a Guide-ID account for another site only need to sign out and back in. For details, see Adding Team Members.
