Key Concepts or Steps

Getting a PortalSIX user account
When a new user account is created for you, you will receive a Welcome Email. This email is sent to the email associated with your PortalSIX user account.

The Welcome Email contains:
  1. The website address where you can configure your login information
  2. Your username (which is your email address)
  3. A one-time password (OTP) that you'll use to sign in for the first time
If you believe you should have a PortalSIX user account but do not have a Welcome Email, please contact one of your organization's PortalSIX Administrators.


Navigating to your PortalSIX user app
When accessing your PortalSIX user app for the first time, you'll need to set up your login information. To start this process, please navigate to the URL included in your Welcome Email, then follow the prompts shown on the screen to configure your password and additional authentication methods.

For additional help on configuring your login information, please visit the article on Registering your new PortalSIX user account

Once you have created and confirmed your password, you will be directed to your PortalSIX user app's main login page.

The URL for your PortalSIX user app is in the format:
               https://[your account name].six3ro.com.



Logging into your account
To log in to your PortalSIX user app:
  1. Navigate to your PortalSIX user app login page at https://[your account name].six3ro.com
  2. Enter your username, which is your email address associated with your PortalSIX user account. Your username is not case sensitive.
  3. Enter your password. Your password is case sensitive
  4. Choose how you wish to receive a code for your additional authentication. You can choose to receive the code on your phone, via text message, or by email
  5. Enter the code you receive at your selected location
If your authentication attempt fails, you can retry, or you can select "Forgot password" to reset your login credentials.
