Guidelines for Using STAP UI

For information about supported browsers, see STAP Compatibility Matrix.

When using the UI:

  • To avoid losing data, do not use browser commands like as Back, Forward, and Refresh. If you accidentally use a browser command, navigate to the dashboard and, if required, sign in to STAP again.
  • Do not open multiple instances of STAP in different browser windows or tabs of the same browser window.
  • Ensure that cookies are enabled in your browser window.

About Authorization Modes

There are two modes of authentication available:

  • Basic Authentication supports a straightforward authentication method where the user provides a username and password.
  • Open Authorization (OAuth) is an open standard authorization framework that enables your system administrators to grant third-party applications access to your data without exposing the user's usernames and passwords. Instead of sharing credentials directly, OAuth issues access tokens to authorize specific resource access.

Logging In to STAP

You log in to the STAP UI in a browser window. To log in:

  1. Enter your Username and Password.
  2. Click Login.

    The system validates credentials and grants access if they match stored information, securely logging in the user.

Resetting Your Password

If you forget your password, follow these steps:

  1. Click Forgot Password.

    This opens the Reset Password page.

  2. Enter the user name and email address associated with the account.
  3. Click Reset.

    You will receive an email containing instructions for resetting your password.
