Getting Started¶
Matchbook is a data management and matching tool designed to help businesses maintain and optimize their data quality, improve data governance, and streamline data stewardship workflows. By centralizing data from multiple sources, Matchbook enables users to manage, cleanse, enrich, and match records to ensure accuracy and consistency across business functions. The tool’s automated matching algorithms and data enrichment processes allow users to handle large volumes of records with varying confidence levels, effectively identifying and managing duplicate or conflicting entries.
This document provides key concepts to familiarize new users with the platform features and workflow.
Login¶
The first interaction of a user with an application is always significant. This section explains the process of logging up, creating a new account, performing authentication etc. The first step towards accessing the Matchbook application involves signing up as a user. Users are required to navigate to the designated sign-up section within the application.
There are various login options available, but users can only log in using the method configured for them at the user level.
Note
Users with admin privileges can add other users to the platform. For assistance creating the platform admin user contact Matchbook AI customer support.
Using your Matchbook email ID and password¶

Login using Google¶
Login with Microsoft¶
Users can log in using their Microsoft account credentials, providing seamless integration with their existing Microsoft services. This option may also require multi-factor authentication (MFA) for added security, depending on the organization’s settings.

Login with Okta¶
For Okta, users need to provide their Okta credentials, which typically include their username and password. Depending on the organization’s security settings, users may also need to complete multi-factor authentication (MFA) to access their account securely.
Login using Okta¶
Send Sign in Link¶
For the password less option, a login link is sent via email. By clicking on the link, the user can log in without needing a password. The user will only see the Sign-in page during this process. This method provides a convenient and secure way to access the system without remembering a password. The link is time-sensitive and can only be used once, ensuring additional security for the login process.
Generate Login Link¶
Note
During onboarding, when access to the portal is granted, a user login is created to allow the individual to securely access the platform. This login method is configured according to the organization’s chosen authentication settings. All these login features are enabled and configured from the backend to ensure proper access control and security settings for users.
The Global Admin is responsible for adding users and can do so directly from the platform by navigating to the Settings section, then selecting the Portal and going to the Security tab. This allows them to manage add, edit user access and permissions efficiently. There can be multiple global admins.
Forgot Password¶
The Forgot Password feature is applicable only for Matchbook providers, allowing users to reset their passwords securely if they are unable to remember them. It will send an email to the user containing a link to reset their password, allowing them to securely create a new password for their account.
Forgot Password¶
This link directs the user to a secure page where they can create a new password. It is important to note that the link is time-sensitive and can only be used once to enhance security. By allowing users to reset their passwords through this method, the system ensures a seamless recovery process while maintaining the integrity and safety of user accounts.
