  • If the link expires, your unverified account remains in the system but you cannot log in
  • You'll need to create a new account with a different email address (or contact support to help with the existing email)
  • You cannot log in until your email is verified

Email Verification Screen​

After signing up, you'll see:

"Check Your Email"

  • Message: "We've sent a verification email to [your email]"

Best Practices​

Choosing a Strong Password​

Do:

  • Include lowercase letters (a-z)
  • Include numbers (0-9)
  • Include special characters (!@#$%^&*)
  • Use a unique password you don't use elsewhere
  • Consider using a password manager

Don't:

  • Use personal information (birthday, name, etc.)
  • Use common passwords (password123, etc.)
  • Use the same password as other accounts
  • Share your password with anyone

Email Address​

Tips:

  • Use an email address you check regularly
  • Make sure you have access to this email account
  • Add noreply@atria.com or support@atria.com to your contacts to avoid spam filtering
  • Keep your email secure - it's used for account recovery
Next Steps

After creating and verifying your account, complete your profile with a bio, job title, and social links. This helps other attendees learn about you and makes networking more effective.
