Logging into the Dashboard

You log into Dashboard by accessing the URL of the Dashboard web application. Normally this webapp is called dashboard and will be available under this URL: http://my-editorial-host/dashboard/ where my-editorial-host is the host where your editorial staff is connecting their Escenic Content Studio to.

If you wish to allow external users to log into the Dashboard, the dashboard web application must of course be deployed on the hosts facing the web (the presentation servers).

On the login page, it is important that you select the correct publication to log in to, as well as your user name and password. You can always use the publication admin user to log in. Alternatively, you can assign the roles defined in Dashboard Security to give other users sufficient privelges to use the Dashboard, either for content moderation only or for using all the Dashboard features.
