Create your user account

Step 1: Activate your account
Your user account notification email will look similar to this, and is generated by the organisation inviting you to access Boaz:
Click the link the link to activate your account within three hours of receiving the email.
When you click the link, you’ll be invited to create your password:
Your password must:
• be more than 9 characters in length
• contain at least one uppercase and one lowercase letter
• contain at least one number and special symbol, such as an !
Setup 2: Setup Two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication is a common method of security verification that you will be required to complete every time you log in to Boaz. Further to your password, two-factor authentication is an enhanced layer of protection to prevent illegitimate access to your account.
To setup your two-factor authentication, firstly, and if you haven’t already done so, download a two-factor authentication app on to your smartphone.
- If you use Android, download Google’s authentication app
- If you use iPhone, download Google’s authentication app
Open your Authenticator App and click the plus symbol to add a new Authenticator Code by scanning a QR Code. Scan the QR Code displayed on your browser window using your smartphone app:
Your smartphone authentication app will display a new authentication code. Type this code into the 2FA field displayed on screen and click validate.
Your two-factor authentication is now complete and you will see a new authenticator code displayed in your app. Each time you login, you will need to open your two-factor authentication app and enter a new validation code.
Note: If you do not have a separate device with an internet connection (such as a smartphone or tablet with a camera) you can use a browser extension for this purpose such as Authenticator for Chrome, Firefox, or Edge.Step 3: Review your account details
Now that you have created your account password and have setup two factor authentication, you will be prompted to review your account details. Please add relevant information such as your role and your organisation address.
If you would like to change your password, you can do so from the ‘Edit Profile’ page found in the bottom left of the menu after you have logged in.
If you have forgotten your password, click the ‘reset your password’ link on the login page and follow the steps to create a new password.
