Getting Started with Workstation Mobile

Last Updated May 9, 2024

Brief Overview

Ready to set up your Workstation Mobile App?

You've reached the right place! Workstation system can be created from the Workstation Console App for all admin. Getting started with Workstation Mobile can be quick and easy when you follow these simple steps.

Deploy Workstation Mobile

Step 1: Create a Workstation System

Create a new WalkMe system-type Workstation. You can do it using a step-by-step wizard or through the Admin systems page. 

Create Workstation with the Get Started wizard

If you are accessing the Workstation Console App without having an existing Workstation system under your account, you will be presented with the Get Started Wizard which enables you to create one and start working with it within minutes.

By the end of this process, you'll have a working Workstation ready to be tested and deployed.

Create Workstation manually

If you already have an account with Workstation and you need another Workstation system, go to the Systems page in WalkMe Admin and follow the Create System wizard.

Step 2: Set Up Sign-In Method

After creating a new Workstation system, the Get-started wizard shows a form for configuring how users should be able to sign in into their Workstation.

  • If you want to login using their IDP, “Connect your IDP” button will lead you to the right place in the Admin Center for updating its configuration and enabling it on your newly created Workstation.
  • The Admin Center is expected to open in a new tab, and the wizard will be in standby mode where it will look for updated configuration every 10 seconds. Once it finds an IDP provider that is enabled for Workstation, it will automatically advance to the next step.
  • If G-suite or other social connector is being used to log in and you would like to use those until IDP is configured, you can insert your company domain as it appears on users emails in the domain input field.
    • The domain should match the same path the employees emails have after the @ , so if we log-in using John.doe@walkme.com walkme.com will be the value to use in that field.
    • The domain value is also used in cases where you did not deploy your settings file that indicates which system Workstation should load when it is launched. In those cases, a default login page will be presented to all users, and based on the domain part of the email they use to login Workstation will load the appropriate system.

The Mobile Workstation application can be distributed and installed on mobile devices using Mobile Device Management (MDM) software or downloaded by employees directly from the app store/market place by searching “workstation”.
