This article provides an overview of how users can register their first Beyond Identity passkey on a Windows device. If you have already registered your initial Beyond Identity passkey and need to add your passkey to a secondary Windows device, see https://support.beyondidentity.com/hc/en-us/articles/6763368950295-How-do-I-migrate-my-existing-Passkey-to-a-Windows-device.
Instructions
This article assumes that your IT administrator has already installed the Windows authenticator on your device and you just need to register the passkey.
- Open the registration email for Beyond Identity from your IT administrator. It should look similar to the following example:.
Important: If the Windows authenticator was pushed via MDM you do not need to download the authenticator under Step 1, Get Authenticator in the email and can skip to Step 2: Register credential.
- In most cases, your administrator will have already deployed Beyond Identity to machines in your organization and you should skip to Register credential in the email.
- Click the Register New Profile button (shown above).
Important: Make sure you register the passkey before the link expires. - Once registration completes, the authenticator displays a message that the Passkey was successfully set up.
Note: We recommend duplicating your passkey on a second device to help you recover it if it's accidentally deleted. For more information, see https://support.beyondidentity.com/hc/en-
