Authentication & First Steps

Authentication methods​

The available authentication methods depend on the partner system you use:

  • Shigoto: email and password
  • External systems: the login methods provided by your partner system

First steps​

  1. Install Shigoto. See Installation & Rollout for details.
  2. Link all workstations to Shigoto. See Linking Workstations for details.
  3. Roll out to all users.

Out of the box, Shigoto does nothing until a user opts in: no data is sent until that user signs in.

Once signed in, the user will be presented with explanations of what the sensor is doing. From there, the user can choose to:

  • stop the sensor from sending any data,
  • let it run anonymously, or
  • let it run with their personal data.

This behavior can also be customized further — for example, forcing anonymous mode or requiring personal data. Details can be found in the Advanced Section.

Managing users & roles​

Users and roles are synchronized from your partner system. For details on how to manage users and roles, please refer to the documentation of your partner system.
