Signing-in to RayFlow

Saving and opening files from RayFlow requires that the current user is signed-in to the RayFlow instance specified in the configuration screen.

 

The sign-in procedure makes sure that:

 

The user has permissions to a specified RayFlow project.

The user has permissions to see / edit required RayFlow tasks.

 

In order to sign-in, press the RayFlow button located in the top right corner of the screen.

If the server is not valid or not specified, the following warning will be shown:

 

40rfwarn

 

Otherwise, the sign-in overlay will be displayed over the current window:

 

40login2

 

The overlay contains the following information:

 

The URL address of the current RayFlow instance, as configured in the profile settings.

The text fields for the user name and the user password.

A checkbox to remember the credentials on the current machine.
