Start and run the IDE

The System Platform IDE in connected experience mode works according to the following steps. These steps assume that the IDE is the first Operations Control application that you are opening. Subsequent applications that you open will not require a separate sign-on (SSO).

1. Open the IDE.

2. You are prompted to authenticate with the AVEVA Identity Manager. For more information, see Authentication and entitlement.

3. Enter your username (email address) and password to sign in to AVEVA Identity Manager. The email address must be registered to an CONNECT account.

   • If the credentials are not recognized, an error message appears. If you made a mistake entering your username and/or password, re-enter your credentials. If you are unable to log in after correctly entering your credentials, contact your administrator for assistance.

   • When you sign successfully, and if you have a current (unexpired) Operations Control subscription available for your account, the IDE opens and your username is shown as the logged-in user.

   • If a valid subscription is not found, the IDE does not open.

4. IDE capabilities are enabled as per the permissions associated with the groups and roles assigned to you as the signed-in user.

5. To connect to a galaxy, see the next section.
