Atlas Community Guidelines
Welcome to the Khoros Community, Atlas! The mission of this online community is to provide a peer-to-peer and direct support channel for people cultivating enterprise communities on the Khoros platform. It is a central for education and thought leadership on best practices, where we also ideate with customers directly on how to improve and extend the product platform. Please remember that you may not share your registered account with any other individual, entity, or organization. Enterprise communities are created by business organizations for their customers, partners or other enthusiasts. While our community is aimed at Khoros customers and users, we welcome everyone with an interest in enterprise communities, as long as you observe these community rules: 1. Be respectful. Respect people's time and attention by asking well-thought-out questions and sharing what you've learned so far in your experimentation or prior research. Respect people as individuals by keeping your tone positive and your comments constructive. 2. Be relevant. Make sure your contributions are relevant to the mission of the community, to the specific discussion style and topic where you post. Please do not post duplicate messages in different areas of the community to avoid fragmenting discussion. If you have a new question, start a new thread rather than interrupting a conversation. Solicitations are rarely relevant. If you have something you want members to join, participate in, or buy, ask us first. 3. Keep your word. Don't post anything that would violate any contractual agreements (copyright, trade secret, or otherwise) or nondisclosure agreements to which you are a party. 4. Protect privacy - yours and others'. Don't share anything about yourself or your organization that you would not want to see on a road-side billboard. Share your business email address if you wish, but don't post personal information-your own or anyone else's (including contact information or any), or content that you receive in one-to-one communications, without the author's consent. 5. Remember, this is user-generated content. You'll find plenty of good advice here, but remember that your situation, configuration, or implementation may vary from that of the individual sharing a solution. Some advice you find here may even be wrong. Apply the same good judgment here that you would apply to information anywhere on the Internet. By using these forums you agree to follow these rules as well as the full Terms of Service for the Khoros Community. We thank you, and your fellow community members thank you. The Khoros Logo and Khoros Employees You will notice that some community members have a Khoros logo next to their names, this means they are Khoros employees. Like you, they are members of the community around Khoros products, and we encourage them to share their knowledge and opinions here. Feedback & Ideas We want this to be the best community it c…15KViews

Atlas Single Sign-On (SSO) & Registration for Marketing Customers
Marketing customers previously had to email Support or CommunityHelp to gain access to gated content in Atlas if they were using a Marketing Product. On March 17, 2020, we implemented single sign-on (SSO) so these requirements are no longer necessary. If you’re a marketing customer and would like to know more about how SSO will affect your access to Atlas, please read the FAQ below. How can Marketing customers register for Atlas? How can Marketing customers log in to Atlas? How should I log in or register if I use Khoros Marketing and another Khoros product? What if a Marketing customer clicks a link within the Marketing product? What if the Marketing customer uses a different email for Marketing and Atlas? What if the Marketing customer has multiple logins for different Marketing environments? What is SSO? What about Care and Community customers? Still having trouble? How can Marketing customers register for Atlas? The Marketing Customers button will allow Khoros Marketing users (formally Spredfast) to sign or register into Atlas via Signal Sign On (SSO). If you use Khoros Marketing and another Khoros product, we recommend you sign in using Marketing SSO. How can Marketing customers log in to Atlas? Marketing customers will be given the opportunity to log in to Atlas using their Khoros Marketing credentials. If the user has already registered for Atlas, Khoros will utilize SSO, to automatically log them into the page they were trying to get to. How should I log in or register if I use Khoros Marketing and another Khoros product? If you use Khoros Marketing and another Khoros product, we recommend you sign in using Marketing SSO. What if a Marketing customer clicks a link within the Marketing product? If a Marketing customer follows a link to documentation from within a Marketing product, this will trigger the flows above. What if the Marketing customer uses a different email for Marketing and Atlas? They will need to update their Atlas email to match the email they use for the Marketing platform. They can change their email address in their email settings page. If the user doesn’t change their email, they will have duplicate accounts. What if the Marketing customer has multiple logins for different Marketing environments? They can either set up multiple Atlas profiles or choose to log in with one natively through Atlas. What is SSO? Single sign-on is an authentication scheme that allows a user to log in with a single ID and password to any of several related, yet independent, software systems. What about Care and Community customers? We are investigating ways to provide SSO to all of our customers, but for now, Care and Community customers will still need to request customer access by emailing [email protected].
