Get Started: Admin Portal

At the center of the JumpCloud application is the user interface (UI). There are two different UIs and experiences for JumpCloud administrators and JumpCloud users—IT Admins should be familiar with both. 

The Admin Portal is your command center for administering JumpCloud for your organization.

Admin Portal Login

Log in to your JumpCloud Admin Portal from the Administrator Portal Login page.

To log in to your JumpCloud admin account:

  1. Using a supported browser, go to https://console.jumpcloud.com/login.
  2. If you’re viewing the User Portal Login, select your initials in the top right of the page and click Launch Admin Portal
  3. Enter your company email address and password, then click Administrator Login.

Admin Portal User Interface

When you log in to JumpCloud you're taken to the JumpCloud Homepage. The Homepage gives you aggregated, actionable directory data at-a-glance to help you accomplish tasks and troubleshoot issues quickly across the users and resources in your organization. 

Manage your users from the Users page. When you have added users to your JumpCloud account, it will resemble the image below.
