Create your Trimble Identity

You need a Trimble Identity to download Trimble products and to use your subscriptions. The Trimble Identity is connected to a Tekla Online organization (a user group for your company).

Creating a Trimble Identity as the named contact for your company

If you do not already have any Trimble products, you must create a Trimble Identity when you purchase your first subscription or license. When your company purchases a subscription or license, one user is designated as the named contact for the company.

If you are the named contact for your company, Trimble invites you to your Tekla Online organization and sends you an email with an invitation to complete your Trimble Identity account creation. Create your Trimble Identity using the link in this email and make sure that you fill in all of the required user profile information.

After you have created your Trimble Identity, you receive an email to accept membership in your new Tekla Online organization. As the named contact, you have administrator rights and can add other administrators and users. For more information, see Manage user accounts for Tekla products.

Create a Trimble Identity as a commercial user or administrator

If you have received an email invitation from Trimble to create a Trimble Identity, follow the instructions in the email to create your account. Otherwise, create a new Trimble Identity.

After you create your Trimble Identity, join your company's Tekla Online organization.

Note:

The organization that you belong to can also affect your access to your organization's data stored in the cloud, such as Tekla Model Sharing models. Do not change between organizations unnecessarily. We recommend that you use your company email address for your Trimble Identity.
