Email & Password
Sign in with email and password, change the default admin account, and learn how users are provisioned in NQRust Analytics.
Email and password is the built-in sign-in method for NQRust Analytics. It is always available and needs no configuration.
Signing in
Open the web interface at http://<server-host>:3000 (your server's IP address or
hostname). You are redirected to the login screen.
Enter your email address and password, then choose Sign In.
On success you are taken to the home page. If the credentials are incorrect, the page shows Invalid email or password.
The NQRust Analytics sign-in screen with the email and password fields.
Repeated failed attempts are rate limited per IP address and email. After too many failures, sign-in is temporarily blocked and the page reports that the account is locked or that there have been too many attempts; wait and try again later. Successful and failed logins are recorded for auditing.
The default administrator account
A fresh install is seeded with one administrator so you can sign in immediately:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
admin@localhost | |
| Password | admin123 |
| Display name | Administrator |
| Role | admin |
This account is created active and verified, and is assigned the built-in
admin role, which grants every permission. If a project already exists when
the account is seeded, the admin is also made that project's owner.
Change the admin123 password immediately. These credentials are identical on
every install and are publicly documented; anyone who can reach your instance
could sign in with them until you change the password.
How users are created
Public sign-up is disabled. The /register URL simply redirects back to the
login page. New accounts are created by an administrator from the User
Management area — there is no self-service registration form.
Because of this, the seeded admin@localhost account is effectively your first
user: sign in with it, change its password, then create accounts for everyone
else and assign each one a role.
Users who sign in through single sign-on can be created automatically the first time they authenticate, instead of being added by hand. See Single sign-on.
