2.0 Using PATHWAY
Setting Up Your Account
Check your email for a message from your Jackson Lewis team with the subject line: ‘Welcome to PATHWAY VIA JL.’
Click on the link in the email to create your password according to the character requirements (Fig. 1.1)
•
•
Fig. 1.1
•
Logging In
Setting up your password (above) will be considered your first log-in to PATHWAY VIA JL.
First-time
All repeat log-ins will require another step beyond entering your password. This “two-factor authentication” process is described in more detail below.
All subsequent log-ins after your first log-in to create your PATHWAY VIA JL password (see “Setting Up Your Account” above) requires two-factor authentication:
Enter your username (typically your email address) and password. (Fig 1.2)
Select one of the two options presented for your authenticator app: “Salesforce” or “Another Verification Method” (Fig 1.3)
1.
2.
•
Salesforce (Arrow A): Using Salesforce’s own authenticator app is simpler overall, but requires installing the app, which will likely be used solely for PATHWAY VIA JL access.
See Section 3.0 for detailed instructions on installing the Salesforce authenticator.
For each log-in after the Salesforce authenticator is installed on your mobile device, after entering your username and password, the Salesforce App will send a push notification to your mobile device to approve the log-in. Tap the “Approve” button on the notification on your device to confirm the log-in.
Another Verification Method (Arrow B): Using this option may be the preferred approach if you already have another authenticator app installed on your phone.
•
Note: If you use another provider, when you log in to Pathway via desktop or laptop, you will use the alternative authenticator app already on your mobile device to scan the QR code that will be displayed on your desktop or laptop.
For each log-in after a non-Salesforce authentication app is configured on your mobile device, you will see a PATHWAY VIA JL screen asking you to verify your identity via a code from the authentication app on your phone.
Enter the code from your authenticator app after logging in with your username and password. Tap Verify and you will be logged in.
