The most common method to register for the LongJump Platform is via the Free Trial link provided in a web page provided by the Service Provider. This is called Self-Registration.

Optionally, Service Providers can create an account (Tenant), and register new users manually.

If you do not have an account, contact your System Administrator.

If you forgot your password, click the Forgot my password link. Complete these steps to get a temporary password.

Customer Support Login

A Service Provider's Customer support often needs to login to a tenant, so they can help with its configuration. The Customer Support Login lets them login as the admin user in the specified tenancy, to do that.

Users that have the Customer Support Login Permission permission can Login by Proxy to a Tenant 

To Login by Proxy to a Tenant:

  1. Open the Tenants object
  2. Navigate to the Tenant of interest
  3. In the Quick Links section, click the Customer Support Login link to login as this user
    • This Login by Proxy is tracked in the Audit Log, and is visible to the user
  4. When the investigation is complete, click the Switch Back link to exit the Proxy Login and revert to your last login state

After a successful Login, the LongJump Platform is available for use.
