How to login?
-------------

After your account has been created (see :ref:`here <register>`), you will receive an automated message from LABGeM containing the required login information:

.. note:: Dear annotator,
 	
	This is an automated message from LABGeM: **your MicroScope account is now fully active**.
 	
	The Microscope web interface URL is : https://mage.genoscope.cns.fr/microscope
 	
	Your login : **your_username**.
 	
	Your password : **your_password**
	
	Please note that login data is **confidential**. You may not share your account with anyone, or allow anyone other than you personally to access or use your account.
 	
	Best regards,
 	LABGeM Team

Use this information in order to login into your account and get access to private sequences and annotation rights.

On the :ref:`Login Interface of the Navigation Menu <interface-overview>` (item #1), near the *welcome guest* message,

* fill the **username** field with **your_username**
* fill the **password** field with **your_password** .
* then click on the *LOGIN* button.

.. tip::
	* If you already had an active account on the old MaGe version, your *username* & *password* for the new interface remain unchanged.
	* You can login from any window of the MicroScope interface; there’s no need to login from the homepage (or a specific webpage).

Once you’re logged, the Login Interface will be replaced by your Firstname, your Lastname and a *LOGOUT* button.

On your first login, you’ll be redirected to the :ref:`Personal Informations Interface <personal-information>` where you’ll be prompted to fill in or update required data before using the platform.

.. note:: **For security reasons, as soon as you finished your daily work, do not forget to click on the LOGOUT button in order to close the session and disconnect yourself from our servers.**
