Directions for UWG employee to activate USG MFT account / access:
Step 1 - Account
If a UWG employee has never logged into files.usg.edu, logging in with SSO credentials and approving a two-factor authentication will activate their account. Accounts are no longer created but activated with the SSO login.
They will need to type in: files.usg.edu and scroll down the page and look for a link directing them to sign in with SSO. Click it, and it should take them to the Single Sign-On page. Once logged in, their account should be active.
Step 2 - Access
They can then submit a USG ticket letting USG know they have activated their account by logging in and asking for permissions to be granted to a Managed Services UWG Banner Jobsub folder.
