Sign in and passwords
Sign in to the Metis Cloud console with your email or with Google or GitHub, reset a forgotten password, set or change your password, and sign out.
You sign in to the Metis Cloud console at console.trymetis.email. The sign-in page has two tabs, Sign in and Create account. To create an account, see Create an account.
Sign in with your email
- On the Sign in tab, type your Email and Password.
- Click Sign in.
If you turned on two-factor authentication, you then enter a code. See Two-factor authentication.
You land on the page you asked for, or on Instances.
If the console cannot sign you in, it shows a message under the form. Check your email and password and try again.
Sign in with Google or GitHub
Click Google or GitHub above the form, then sign in with that provider.
- The first time you do this with a new email address, it creates a Metis Cloud account and opens Instances.
- If the provider’s verified email address matches an account you already have, you sign in to that account.
If the provider sign-in does not work, you return to the sign-in page with “Sign-in with that account did not work. Try again, or use your email and password.”
Reset a forgotten password
- On the Sign in tab, type your Email.
- Click Forgot password? next to the Password label. If you left Email empty, you see “Enter your email first.”
- You see “If that address has an account, a reset link is on its way.”
- Open the email with the subject “Reset your Metis Cloud password” and click Choose a new password. The link works once and expires soon.
- Type a New password of at least 10 characters and click Save password.
- You see “Your password is changed.” Click Sign in.
If you see “This reset link is invalid or has expired. Ask for a new one from the sign-in page.”, click Back to sign in and start again.
Set a password
If you signed up with Google or GitHub, your account has no password. Settings then shows the Set a password card. Add a password to also sign in with your email.
- Open the account menu (your name at the top right) and click Settings.
- In Set a password, type your new password in Password and Confirm password. Use at least 10 characters.
- Click Set password.
You see “Password set. You can also sign in with your email now.” The card is then replaced by the Password card.
If the two entries differ, you see “The passwords do not match.”
Change your password
- Open the account menu and click Settings.
- In the Password card, type your Current password.
- Type the New password and type it again in Confirm new password. Use at least 10 characters.
- Leave Sign out of every other device ticked to sign out your other browsers and devices. Untick it to stay signed in there.
- Click Change password.
You see “Password changed.”
If the two new entries differ, you see “The new passwords do not match.” If your current password is wrong, the card shows a message under the form.
Sign out
Open the account menu and click Sign out. You return to the sign-in page.
