Sign in

Polaris uses email and password accounts. There is no public sign-up: an admin creates your account and sends you a temporary password.

Sign in for the first time

1. Open https://epigenomics.polaris.aws.grail.com.
2. On the Log in page, enter your Email and the temporary Password, then select Log in.
3. Polaris asks you to change your password. Enter it in New password and Confirm new password.

You land on a new chat.

Note

The site is only reachable from the United States. If the page does not load, check that you are not connected through a network outside the US.

The welcome email

When an admin adds you, Polaris sends an email with the subject “You’ve been added to team on Polaris”. It contains your temporary password. If you did not get it, check your spam folder or ask your admin. The admin also sees the temporary password once, when they create your account.

Forgot your password

1. On the Log in page, select Forgot password.
2. Enter your email and select Send reset link.
3. Open the link in the email “Reset your password on Polaris”, then set a new password.

If the link has expired, the page says “Invalid or expired link”. Select Request a new link to get another.

You can also ask an admin to reset your password. They get a new temporary password to give you, and you must change it at your next sign-in.

Change your name or password

Open Settings from the name and email block at the bottom of the sidebar. On the Account page, select Edit to change your name.

To change your password later, use Forgot password on the sign-in page, or ask an admin to reset it.

Sign out

Go to Settings › Account and select Sign out.
