Activation and authentication

When an administrator registers you in GENI Workflows, you receive an email with an activation token. The sender is security-dev@notify.geni-bioinfo.com.br. The token expires, so use it promptly.

You can activate from the link in the email, which opens the web console, or from the command line:

Terminal window
geni auth activate --token <token from the email>
New password: <type a new password>
Account activated. Credentials saved to ~/.geni/credentials.json

Activation leaves you signed in. Sessions expire after 8 hours; to sign in again:

Terminal window
geni auth login --email <your email>
Password: <type your password>
Logged in. Credentials saved to ~/.geni/credentials.json
Terminal window
geni auth reset --email <your email>
Password reset email sent.

You receive a new activation email — run geni auth activate with the new token.

Terminal window
geni auth logout
