Signing in to TIBCO Platform Console

Signing in to TIBCO Platform Console for the First Time

When you deploy TIBCO Control Plane, the first admin user will not receive an activation email, even if the email service is configured. Instead, their initial password must be set either during deployment or retrieved from the system logs.

Retrieving Initial Password from Create Admin Job Logs

If you did not set the adminInitialPassword in the tibco-cp-base chart values file during deployment, you can retrieve the password for the first admin user from the logs.

Note: The create-admin-user job is deleted four hours after deployment, so you need to retrieve the password within that timeframe.
    Procedure
  1. Get the create admin job details by running the following command:

    kubectl get jobs -n <control_plane_namespace> | grep tp-control-plane-ops-create-admin-user
  2. Get the logs and search for the initial password by running this command:

    kubectl logs -n <control_plane_namespace> jobs/<job-name> | grep initialPassword

First-Time Login and Next Steps

Once you have the initial password, you can sign in to the TIBCO Platform Console. Use the Default IdP for this first login.

You must reset the password during your first login. After that, you can begin provisioning subscriptions, setting up an external IdP, adding more admin users, and so on.
