To access information using the Tuakiri system, check that the external service you are trying to access uses the Tuakiri system to verify credentials.
When you access a web-based service provided by a service provider of the Tuakiri Federation, for example a restricted-access website at another university:
- When you are redirected to a Tuakiri page asking you which institution you are from, select University of Otago.
- You will be redirected to the University of Otago IdP login page. Log in using your University of Otago username and password.
- You will be shown your digital ID card. This is an electronic statement listing the information that will be released about you to the service provider, and informing the service provider that you have been authenticated.
- Select the level at which you consent to this information being released. You can choose to be asked for consent each time information is released, only when new information is required, or you can consent to share all requested information to all services without providing indvidual consent.
- If you meet the access requirements that the service provider has set (e.g. only staff at the University of Otago are allowed access) your access to the resource will be granted.
