Manage Global Cloud Portal Settings

The Global Cloud Portal provides centralized access to all your organizations.

Instead of logging in separately to each organization, you can log in once through the portal and gain access to all organizations from a single dashboard.

Access the portal at https://auth.global.mist.com.

Note:

The Global Cloud Portal requires a global account to authenticate you. See, Create a Global Account.
Once you link your local and global accounts, organizations associated with the same e-mail address are automatically available after login on the Global Cloud Portal.
No additional sign in is required to access different cloud environments.
