Creating an ISIMA/LIMOS account

The creation request must always come from a permanent member of ISIMA/LIMOS.

  • Each teacher-researcher has access to a account creation request form at https://my.isima.fr/cri/ldap/user/choose

    Please use the UCA and ISIMA/LIMOS user search engine before requesting creation to avoid duplicates

    • To create an ISIMA/LIMOS account, the following information is required:
      • last name
      • first name
      • email
      • description (used to indicate the context of the account creation and the origin of the user to be created)
      • expiration date
      • groups (which will determine the ISIMA/LIMOS services accessible to the user being created)
  • Each request is then submitted for validation to the ISIMA/LIMOS CRI service.

  • Once validated, the user is created and a password initialization link, along with a summary of the groups they belong to, is automatically sent to the email address provided above.

Your account creation requests and created users are available via the account creation request management interface at https://my.isima.fr/cri/ldap/demands

Via the ticket manager (deprecated)

Send an email to your ISIMA contact requesting them to create a ticket at support.isima.fr with the following information:

  • your name, first name, and contact email
  • your needs for the lab session, for example:

  • I need to work from my laptop, use the projector, and have internet access

  • I need to access a machine with the same environment as the students' machines
  • ...

The IT service will then create an appropriate account for your needs and communicate it to you by email.
