Get a JASMIN portal account

This article explains how to register on the JASMIN accounts portal. Registering on the accounts portal allows you to apply for JASMIN services and privileges. It does not by itself provide you with any access to JASMIN machines or services.

There is a video tutorial for the material covered in this article at Getting a new JASMIN account

JASMIN account portal

The  JASMIN accounts portal is a web interface utility dedicated to JASMIN users only. This is standalone from MyCEDA (your CEDA account) and hence a decoupling between the management of access to JASMIN resources (compute and storage) and CEDA resources (access to datasets in the archives).

Apply for a new JASMIN account

To apply for a new JASMIN account you need to have your academic affiliated email address. Then proceed as follows:

Step 1: On  JASMIN accounts portal select "Apply for a new JASMIN account". This will take you to the following page to enter your details.

Step 2:  Select your research discipline.

Step 3: Select the institution you are affiliated with. If your institution is not listed, you can add new institution details by clicking the plus button. Remember to provide supporting information to assess your eligibility for a JASMIN account and then submit your application

Step 4: Follow the URL link sent to your email address. Once your email has been verified, you will receive a second email with a subject 'Application approved' inviting you to complete the account creation.
