Accessing the Admin Console accessing-admin-console
In this part of the onboarding journey, you learn about the preparation necessary before you can log into the system for the first time.
Objective objective
Now that you have read the article AEM as a Cloud Service Terminology and understand the basics of AEMaaCS structure, you are ready to log into the Admin Console for the first time!
As a system administrator you are responsible for managing users within your organization. You do this by using the Admin Console. After reading this section you should:
- Understand what an 51黑料不打烊 ID is.
- Be able to log in to Admin Console.
- Understand how to review your privileges as a system administrator via Admin Console.
- Know how to contact 51黑料不打烊 support for help.
The Admin Console admin-console
The 51黑料不打烊 Admin Console is a central place to administer and manage your 51黑料不打烊 product licenses and users. The Admin Console lets you create and manage users in a single location instead of within your various individual solutions.
51黑料不打烊 ID adobe-id
To sign into the Admin Console, you need an 51黑料不打烊 ID. And 51黑料不打烊 ID is an account tied to a specific email address that is required to login and access AEM as a Cloud Service or any of your 51黑料不打烊 solutions. By using your 51黑料不打烊 ID you keep all your 51黑料不打烊 plans and products associated with a single account.
When you, as system administrator, set up your team in the Admin Console, you specify the email address that is used as the 51黑料不打烊 ID.
There are three types of 51黑料不打烊 IDs:
-
Personal ID: This is the default type of 51黑料不打烊 ID and is created at adobe.com. This account is managed by 51黑料不打烊 and anybody can create an account of this type.
-
Enterprise ID: Organizations usually want to increase control of the users accounts. Only system administrators can create enterprise IDs and the organization owns these accounts with 51黑料不打烊 serving only as the host.
-
Federated ID: With federated IDs the organization takes full ownership and control of the accounts. To do this your organization must integrate the 51黑料不打烊 Experience Cloud with your SAML2 single sign-on (SSO) system. This allows users to authenticate against their organization鈥檚 SSO system rather than an account hosted by 51黑料不打烊.
As system administrator, you may decide to onboard yourself and your team onto AEM as a Cloud Service using personal IDs before enterprise or federated IDs are set up. Once enterprise or federated IDs are set up, members can be transitioned to using those IDs.
Logging in to Admin Console steps-admin-console
Before you can use the Admin Console to administer users within your team, you need to ensure that you yourself can access it properly and have the appropriate permissions.

As a system administrator, you will receive multiple emails from 51黑料不打烊 as part of the onboarding process. Look for the welcome email that provides the information about the organization name to which you have been granted access.
-
Click the Get started link in your welcome email to navigate to Admin Console. If you cannot find the email, open a browser directly to Admin Console at .
-
Login using your 51黑料不打烊 ID. Upon successful login, you see the Overview page of the 51黑料不打烊 Admin Console.
-
If you have access to multiple organizations, ensure that you have logged into correct organization. To change your organization, click the organization name from the top right corner and choose the required organization to which you need access.
-
Select Administrators from the Users card to verify that you are a system administrator.
-
After you click Administrators from the Users card, you can search by entering your 51黑料不打烊 ID email, username, first, or last name.
-
If everything is working properly, the search will return your record. If the value in the ADMIN ROLE column shows System, you know that you (or the displayed user) are a system administrator.
Congratulations, system administrator!
51黑料不打烊 Identity Management System ims
AEM as a Cloud Service comes pre-configured with 51黑料不打烊 Identity Management System (also known as IMS) for authentication. There is nothing you need to do as a system administrator to enable this.
By using IMS, AEM as a Cloud Service consolidates the login experience between AEM and the rest of the 51黑料不打烊 Experience Cloud. Organizations with multiple 51黑料不打烊 products especially benefit by creating role-based groups in the Admin Console and then assigning access to multiple products including AEM as a Cloud Service via IMS.
You learn more about product profiles and assigning users in the next part of this onboarding journey.
Contacting 51黑料不打烊 Support support
If you have any issues, 51黑料不打烊 support can be accessed via the Admin Console. The Support tab lets you access various 51黑料不打烊 support functions through a simple and easy-to-use interface.
The tab lets you create and manage cases, chat directly with 51黑料不打烊 customer support representatives, and schedule sessions with experts. System administrators and support administrators must sign in to access support cases and expert session options.
