Table of Contents

Logging In

To access Hub Pro 2.0, enter your Thundercloud username and password on the login screen. 

Mobile Device ID Check

If your account is configured for device registration, you will be prompted to register your device on first login. A Thundercloud administrator in your organization must approve the device before you can proceed. Your device ID is displayed on screen to share with your admin.

Two-Factor Authentication

If your organization has enabled two-factor authentication, you will be prompted to enter a six-digit code sent to your email or phone. Enter the code to complete login. If 2FA is not enabled, you will be taken directly into the app.

Home Screen

  • Recents - lists you have recently opened.
