# How do I sign in to K-Pro for the first time?

{% hint style="info" %}
**What this article covers** This article explains how to activate your account and log in to K-Pro, including what to do if your provisional password or activation link has expired.
{% endhint %}

### Step-by-step: First-time login

1. Open the welcome email from Owkin (check your spam folder if you don't see it in your inbox).
2. Click the activation link, or navigate to your K-Pro instance URL (shared by your Owkin contact).
3. On the login page, click "Forgot password" and enter your institutional email address.
4. You will receive a password reset email. Click the link inside to set your own password.
5. Log in with your email and new password.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important** Use the institutional email address that your Owkin contact used to create your account. Using a different email will result in a "user not found" error.
{% endhint %}

### My activation link or provisional password doesn't work

Activation links and provisional passwords expire after a limited time. If yours has expired:

* Reply to your welcome email and ask your Owkin contact to resend the activation link.
* Alternatively, go to the K-Pro login page, click "Forgot password", and request a new link directly.
* If neither option works, contact K-Pro support via the "Need Help" button in the platform interface.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.owkin.com/help-center/getting-started/how-do-i-sign-in-to-k-pro-for-the-first-time.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
