Understand the steps for onboarding to a service provider account, from new user sign-up to seamless access and management of services.
The Service Provider (SP) account belongs to SP users, who can only have one account to manage all the specifics regarding their unique service. The subscription and consultation capabilities are disabled for this account type, but still has access to navigate in Marketplace Catalog, and the specific service provider My dashboard.
New user sign up
As a Kyndryl Bridge SP user, you have been invited by the Account Administrator to become a member in your SP account. New account users receive an email invitation, and by accepting it, they can login as a new user of that specific Kyndryl Bridge SP account. The new users may be required to complete the registration process and multi factor authentication using their corporate email address. Users need a Kyndryl ID, or their employers identity provider (IDP) needs to be federated with Kyndryl ID. This action needs to be performed if the new user has not been registered to the Kyndryl site previously.
It is critical to ensure you have activated your user against the Bridge SP Account(s). Make sure to access Kyndryl Bridge directly from the "Activate <customer name> account" link provided in your "Welcome to Kyndryl Bridge" email. Otherwise, if you access directly from the Kyndryl page, the SP account will not be properly linked, and you will not be able to log in to Bridge.
Once you receive the Kyndryl Bridge account invitation via email, click the accepting invite link. You will be redirected to Kyndryl Bridge.
