      Credentials

      The DataJet credentials (username and password) should have already been provided. For most people they are your company's Single Sign On credentials. In addition the Data Realm that is being logged into needs to be known (this is case sensitive):

      • Data Realm (e.g., 'sndbox')
      • username 
      • password  

      Please contact support@datajet.app before proceeding if there are any of these credentials missing.

      Desktop Log In

      Within the DataJet Desktop folder (normally called "datajet-desktop/") there will be a ofile named "DatajetDesktop.exe".  Double click that file and a dialog window will appear.

      Populate the login form:

      • Data Realm = Customer Code
      • Username =  Username
      • Password =  Password 

      Make sure the Windows Desktop client is connected to the internet and click ‘Sign In’. If the configuration is correct, the DataJet application will open.

      Internet Connection
      Note: Even if running DataJet locally (i.e., with DataJet Server running on the same machine as DataJet Desktop client) it is still necessary to have an internet connection in order to log in to DataJet.   This is for authentication purposes.  If there is a need to run DataJet without an internet connection, please contact support@datajet.app for alternative offline configuration details.

      To Load an Existing Project:

      What is a Project?
      A ‘Project’ is a collection of a database, datasets, reports, dashboards and scripts.  Think of a project as a folder which contains all the common materials that a team of users will share when using DataJet. Note that many users will only have access to one Project. For more information see: Introduction to Projects

      To open a project, navigate the menu bar at the top of the DataJet Desktop application and Select Project > Open.

      The Project dialog will appear. Select the project name that is relevant and the Project Explorer will be populated with the project data.
