Logging In to 3DEXPERIENCE platform

You can connect to 3DEXPERIENCE platform using the 3DEXPERIENCE > Login command in the Solid Edge tool bar.

Tip: It is recommended to run the CAD tool in the normal mode if a restrictive User Account Control (UAC) is set. Running the CAD tool in administrator mode with a restrictive UAC setting causes errors.

Before you begin:
  • In baseline behavior environments, the relevant roles must be assigned to you by the Administrator. In Customer-Specific Environment, the SolidEdge User role must be assigned to your user name.
  • Connector for Solid Edge uses all the standard roles defined for baseline behavior. The Reader role for baseline behavior is derived from the Integration User role. For more information, see Business Roles in baseline behavior User Assistance.
  • Ensure that you are assigned a Solid Edge and X-CAD Design Management license.
  1. In the Solid Edge tool bar, select 3DEXPERIENCE > Login.

    Note: Solid Edge connects to 3DEXPERIENCE if an active session exists.

    The 3DEXPERIENCE Login dialog box appears.
  2. In the Username box, type your user name.
  3. In the Password box, type your password.

    Note: The Username and Password field is case sensitive. Ensure that you type letters in uppercase and lowercase exactly as specified by the administrator.

  4. In the Select Credentials dialog box, select credentials from the list for your current session.

    If you have been assigned only one credential, then it is considered as default and the select credentials dialog does not appear.

    If you have been assigned multiple credentials, then the select credentials dialog appears.

    A credential comprises of the following sections:

    Organization: The list contains company, business unit, or other organizations that you are associated with.

    Collaborative Space: The list of collaboration spaces that you have access to. A collaborative space is a workspace that contains objects related to a People and Organization project. For example, within the context of a specific project, you could have one collaboration space for Marketing and another for Engineering.

    Role: The list of roles assigned to you.

    Note: If credentials are not available for a user, log in occurs without using the credentials.
  5. Click OK.

    Tip: To check whether your log on was successful, click 3DEXPERIENCE in the Solid Edge toolbar. All 3DEXPERIENCE commands except Login are enabled.

You are logged on to 3DEXPERIENCE.
