Logging In and Accounts
You can log in to the web application by navigating to https://ai-corporate-pro.web.app within a modern browser.
You will then arrive at the login screen.
On the right side, there is an input where you can choose the environment. Each AI-Corporate customer has their own environment. There is also an Admin environment that is only available to AI-Corporate admins.
Login Options
Different login methods can be set up for each business environment:
- Log in with Google Workspace account
- Log in with Microsoft 365 account
- Log in with email and password
At least 1 login method must (of course) be set up. We advise against using the email and password method, as it is less secure than logging in via Google or Microsoft.
Login Procedure with Corporate Account
The standard method is logging in with a Google or Microsoft corporate account. This proceeds as follows:
- The user clicks the button (Google or Microsoft)
- A pop-up appears where the user logs in via Google or Microsoft
- After logging in, the pop-up closes and the login procedure within AI-Corporate starts
The procedure that follows:
- It is checked whether an account already exists in AI-Corporate for the specific user.
- Is there no account yet? Then the email address is verified.
- Is this email address not on the list of authorized employees? Then the request is rejected.
- Is there already an account? Then it is checked whether the employee is set to active. Otherwise, the request is rejected.
Account Creation
Accounts are automatically created after a successful first login attempt, provided the user's email address is included in the list of authorized employees. During account creation, roles/rights (tokens) are added on the server:
- employee (yes/no): set to "yes" if the email address matches an email address on the list of authorized employees.
- admin (yes/no): initially set to "no" and can be assigned later by an administrator.
- super admin (yes/no): initially set to "no" and reserved for AI-Corporate administrators.
These tokens are linked to permissions. Permissions are set by the administrator of your business environment. The administrator defines what rights are assigned to each role.
Email and Password Accounts
Email and password accounts can only be created by administrators of the AI-Corporate environment. We advise against using this login method due to:
- Security: email and password accounts are inherently less secure. To make this safer, two-factor authentication (2FA) would be necessary, which is currently not standard supported by AI-Corporate for this method.
- User-friendliness: it is not pleasant for employees to have to remember yet another email/password combination. It is also cumbersome for administrators to recover forgotten passwords.
Email and password accounts are thus a last option if other login methods (Google/Microsoft SSO) are not possible for your organization.
