A user visits one of our apps that requires authentication and is redirected to the login page. For example, visit our main data entry app: https://data.pointblue.org/science/biologists/
The user enters an fws.org email address at the prompt:
When the system sees an fws.org email that does not already have an account, a “Sign up” option is presented:
The sign up links direct the user to login using the native DOI signal sign on interface:
After the user completes authentication, they are redirected to our sign up page with known fields of information already populated from the user’s authentication response, such as first and last name, and email address. The only required field is the “Project you wish to join”. This is because we only accept users who are part of a real world survey efforts, which are called “projects” in our system. If a user doesn’t know the name of their project, they need to contact their survey coordinator or supervisor.
Registration page link: https://data.pointblue.org/apps/login/register
The user receives a notification to their email inbox with a link to validate their address.
Once the user has clicked their validation link, the Project Leader in charge of the requested project receives an email notification to approve or deny the new user request.
The Project Leader who receives the email notification must click the provided link to approve the new user’s access. If they do, the new user’s account is activated at the same time. If not, the user’s account remains in a pending state, which cannot be changed until the user is approved for a project.
While the user account remains in this state, it will not be recognized as a valid account for authentication or access. User accounts cannot be approved without also being associated with a project.
