SkieWho can use the Skie Provision app and how do you sign in?
The Provision app opens with a gate where you say if you are a parent or an institute, and then sends you to a browser to sign in with your Skie account. The app never asks you to type the account password into the app itself. Institute users see their schools, groups and students.
The first screen is a gate. It asks one thing: are you a parent setting up a child's device, or an institute setting up devices for students or staff? The two paths are kept separate because Skie for Parents and Skie for Enterprise are separate products with different structures. A parent sees one child. An institute sees organisations, schools, branches and groups.
After the gate, the app opens your browser to sign in. Signing in through the browser means the password is entered on the Skie sign-in page and not inside the app, which is the safer pattern and the one most people already know from other apps. When you finish, the browser hands you back to the app with a session.
What you can do depends on your role. An organisation admin or a school admin can provision devices into the groups they manage. A teacher with class access may be limited to their own class. A parent can provision their own child's device. If you cannot see a group, the usual reason is that your role does not cover it, so ask an admin to adjust access.
The same sign-in feeds the web dashboard view inside the app, so the admin can look at the result straight after the stepper finishes.
Practical tip: sign in on the setup phone the day before, not in front of thirty waiting students. If sign-in loops back to the gate, check that the phone's default browser works and is up to date. See what the Provision app is and role based access.
