Before accessing EGI services, you’ll first need an account through EGI Check-in, which is the Identity and Access Management (IAM) system used by EGI. An Identity Manager (or IAM system) is a secure layer that handles who you are, how you log in, and what you’re allowed to access across all participating platforms and services.

Instead of creating a new username and password for every service, EGI Check-in allows you to log in using an existing identity you already trust — like your institutional account, ORCID, Google, or even an X.509 certificate. It does this by acting as a central gateway that connects your trusted login with the services and resources you need across the European research ecosystem.

This approach offers major benefits:

- You don’t need to remember another password.

- You can access multiple services with a single, consistent profile.

32
- Your permissions and roles are automatically applied based on your identity.

- If you later switch institutions or accounts, you can still retain your access (especially if you link identities, which will be discussed later on).

Signing up is simple. You don’t create a new account from scratch — instead, you sign in once using an identity provider (IdP) you already have, and EGI Check-in creates a secure profile for you.
