Login View
For confidentiality reason, users are required to login before they have access to most of the UBIK® features.
Contents
Accessing login view
The login view is displayed after starting the app. It is possible to access the login view from every where in the app by pressing the login icon in the top right corner and selecting "log out".
Profile selection
The name of the currently selected profile is displayed on the top of the view. By default, the last used profile will be selected here. It is possible to change the profile by pressing the Profile Button. The profile selection flyout will pop up, from which the user can select any profile (see the figure on the right).
To add custom profiles, you must add them under the app's RoamingState folder. You can also categorize your profiles using subfolders within this directory. You will see 3 different tabs when opening the profile selection view.
Recent
The "Recent" tab shows all available profiles, ordered by most recently used (at the top), to least recently used. When you click a profile anywhere in the selection view, it will be timestamped, and added to the top of the "Recent" tab.
Favorites
The "Favorites" tab shows profiles that the user has marked as favorites. To mark a profile as favorite, simply click the the star icon next to the profile's name. You will see it immediately appearing in the favorites list (sorted alphabetically). You can of course undo this action by simply pressing the star icon again to unmark the profile as favorite.
Browser
The "Browser" tab shows all available profiles, but displays them exactly as your file browser would, including subfolders. The user can navigate through subfolders simply by clicking them.
Login Dialog
The login dialog is opened by pressing the Login button. The dialog also opens automatically after selecting a profile. The first time the user uses a single profile to connect to a service, he is asked whether the system should remeber login and password (for the user and profile). If the user selects yes, the login dialog will not appear again and the credentials are used immediately the next time he connects by using the profile. If the user selects no, he has to enter his credentials every time.
Offline Login
Every successfull online login is stored. The stored credentials are used for supporting offline logins.
 | You can access a local database without online connection (offline) when the credentials where used once to connect successfully to the online service. |
Clear Cache
The clear cache feature (settings) deletes all the remembered credentilas (login and password) from the system.
 | Offline logins are not possible after clearing the cache until the user connected once at the online service. |
Team login
Team login allows a group of users to login with a single device and perform tasks together as a team.
Team login button
| This button is not available by default in the app, certain custom templates are needed for this. An example template can be downloaded  here. |
Team login dialog
The team login dialog has the following parts:
- Profile selector to change profiles;
- Team member list (each member has a remove button at the right side);
- + button to add members;
- Login button;
- Close button.
The same login dialog shows up once the + button is pressed and the members should enter their credentials one by one. Once all the members are successfully added, press the Login button to login as a team.
| All members in a team should login to the same service, namely using the same profile. Therefore, the profile selector will be disabled as long as the member list is not empty. |
