Users need valid access rights to log in to QPR ProcessAnalyzer. Users can loging either using single-sign on or built-in user account. If the Log in using SSO button is available in the login screen, single-sign on is enabled, and it's most likely the preferred login method.

Log in using single-sign on

QPR ProcessAnalyzer environment may be connected to organization's user accounts using single-sign on (SSO) with SAML 2.0 protocol, indicated by the Login using SSO button in the login screen. When pressing the button, user is directed to user organizations' identity provider service to be authenticated. After the authentication, user is directed back to QPR ProcessAnalyzer as an authenticated user. Normally when using the single-sign on, the user doesn't see the QPR ProcessAnalyzer login screen, as user is directed right away to the identity provider.

Note that the username and password fields in the QPR ProcessAnalyzer login screen are only used for the built-in authentication, and thus users are not able to login with organizations' user account using QPR ProcessAnalyzer login screen.

If using QPR ProcessAnalyzer as Snowflake Native App, the Login using SSO button will authenticate user using the currently active Snowflake user session. Note that a user account with the same username needs to already exist in the QPR ProcessAnalyzer user management for the authentication to be successful.

Log in using built-in user account

If the single-sign on is not available, users will login using built-in user accounts, that are managed in QPR ProcessAnalyzer user management. Username and password are inputted using QPR ProcessAnalyzer login screen. Usually email address is used as the username. For the first login, you have received the credentials from the QPR ProcessAnalyzer system administrator. It's recommended to change the password after the first login in the User Settings dialog available in the main menu.
