Getting started — first sign-in

This is the very first step. By the end of it, the first admin can sign in to your EnClaw workspace.

What you should have received​

Your EnClaw operator (EnClaw support, or your in-house platform team) gives you two things at provisioning time:

  1. The web URL of your workspace — e.g. https://app.enclaw.com (SaaS) or https://your-org.enclaw.com (a customer-specific host).
  2. First-admin credentials — either an email + temporary password, or an invite link if SSO isn't set up yet.

If you don't have these, contact your operator before going further.

Sign in​

  1. Open the web URL in a modern browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox; recent versions).
  2. Enter the admin email and password (or click the invite link).
  3. You land on the dashboard — the home page when you're signed in.

If you see a sign-in error or the page doesn't load, jump to Troubleshooting. The most common causes are DNS not yet propagated (wait 5–10 minutes after deploy) or your EnClaw operator not having finished the platform-side setup.

Find your way around​

The left sidebar carries the main navigation. The items that matter for setup are:

  • /integrations — connect Microsoft Teams, Slack, your LLM providers, SSO. This is where most first-time setup happens.
  • /users — invite teammates, assign roles, manage memberships.
  • /admin — platform-level controls (only visible to platform_admin / super_admin roles). On a fresh tenant this is mostly empty.

The other sidebar items (Agents, Squads, Chat, File Space, Marketplace, Skills) are workspace features your users will reach for after setup — you can ignore them during the initial admin pass.

Decide who the "first admin" is​

The account you just signed in with has super_admin or platform_admin privileges depending on how your operator provisioned it. This account can do everything, including invite other users and assign roles.

Recommended hygiene before you invite anyone:

  • Plan to have at least two admins — losing access to the only admin account is recoverable but painful (the operator has to reset it).
  • Decide whether the first admin should also be an everyday user. If the same person does both, that's fine — EnClaw doesn't require role separation. If you'd rather keep admin separate, create a dedicated <your-name>+admin@<company>.com account.

Next: connect SSO​

Don't invite anyone else yet. Setting up SSO before inviting users means everyone signs in with their corporate credentials from the very first click — no EnClaw-specific passwords to manage, reset, or rotate.

Go to Single Sign-On (SSO).
