Getting started

Signing in — no password

orgware has no passwords. You sign in with a magic link sent to the email on your member record.

  1. Go to waccamaw.org/members.
  2. Enter the email address the tribe has on file for you.
  3. Check your inbox for a message from the Waccamaw Indian People and click the secure link.
  4. You're in. Your session lasts about 8 hours, then you sign in again.

The member sign-in page

Didn't get the email? Check spam, and make sure you used the address on your membership record. If it still doesn't arrive, contact tribal leadership — your email may need updating on the roll.

Why no password? Passwords get reused, forgotten, and stolen. A link to your verified email is both simpler and safer: only someone with access to your inbox can get in, and there's nothing to remember or leak.

The member portal

Once you're signed in, you land on your member portal — your home base.

The member portal home

From here you can reach everything your ring gives you:

  • The Tribal Record — the tribe's knowledge library. → Guide
  • API access — get a personal key to query the record from your own tools. → Guide
  • Your record — the details the tribe holds for you.

If you're a member of leadership, you'll also see the roll book, the contact directory, engagement tools, and the cost console. → For leadership

Signing out

Use Sign out in the portal (or visit waccamaw.org/logout) to end your session. On a shared computer, always sign out.

A note on the "security check"

The first time you visit a /members page, Cloudflare may briefly show a "Performing security verification" screen. That's normal edge protection for the private area — it clears itself in a second on a real browser and then you won't see it again for a while.


Next: The Tribal Record.
