Atlas works best when users log in with their email address. If you originally set up a user with a username and password, you can easily update this to use their email address instead.

Why Use an Email Address?

  • Email logins unlock more features in Atlas.

  • Users can easily reset their passwords.

  • Communication and notifications are streamlined.

Steps to Change a Username to an Email Address

  1. Go to the Users Section

    • Navigate to: Dashboard > Users

  2. Edit the User’s Details

    • Click Actions (...) next to the user.

    • Select View or edit user details.

  3. Enable Email Login

    • Turn on the ‘Has Email’ option.

    • Enter the user’s email address in the provided field.

  4. Update the User

    • Click Save changes to save your changes.

  5. Send a Password Reset

    • Use the Actions (...) button again

    • Select View or edit user details.

    • Select Reset Password.

    • The user will receive an email to set a new password and can now log in with their email address.
