Logging on to the Dashboards App

Important

This information is applicable to the DMS Dashboards module, which is being retired as of DataMiner version 10.4.x. See DataMiner functionality evolution and retirement. For more information on the Dashboards web app available from DataMiner 9.6.9 onwards, see Dashboards app.

In most cases, logging on to the Dashboards App is similar to logging on to DataMiner Cube. See Logging on to DataMiner Cube.

However, there are some differences:

  • In the Dashboards App, users can not only log on with their regular username, but also with the email address that has been configured in their DataMiner user profile.

  • By default, the Dashboards app in DataMiner Cube makes use of Windows authentication. So, when you log on to DMS Dashboards with a Windows user account onto a server on which two-step authentication is enabled, no challenge will be presented since validation is done by Windows.

    However, two-step authentication can be enabled by using a Dashboard Gateway, or by disabling Windows authentication in the web.config file. See Activating two-step authentication.
