The SURFconext Service Provider Dashboard (https://sp.surfconext.nl/) enables you to manage your service(s) on the SURFconext platform. It allows you to create, test and edit entities before promoting them to production. This page will show you how to get started with the Service Provider Dashboard, commonly known as the SP Dashboard. If you are new to SURFconext, get yourself acquainted with SURFconext by reading this page.

Preparation

Before you start, you have to make sure you have an account with an Identity Provider that has access to SURFconext. You cannot continue if you do not have this, so make sure you have an identity on one of the following types of identity providers:

  • If you have a user account at a Dutch education or research institution, you can use the identity of this institution to work with the dashboard. Proceed below the warning-box (smile).

  • If the above is not the case, you can use our guest identity provider OneGini to gain access to the Service Provider Dashboard. If you don't have an account there, you can create one (for free).

Points of attention when using OneGini or your Institutional Account

  • OneGini:
    • Read here how to create a OneGini account.
    • Important: after account creation at OneGini, confirm the email address used for your OneGini-account by clicking the confirmation link you receive from OneGini. You cannot continue without this because the email address is a required attribute for the SP Dashboard.
  • Use your OneGini- or institution-account to confirm the team invitation SURF sends you. If you have multiple accounts, make sure to use the same account for processing the invitation as well as login' on to the SP Dashboard.

Getting Started
