# Quickstart

> Sign in, pick your role, and complete your first task in a few minutes.

## 1. Sign in

Go to [nycadultedlabels.nyc/auth/signin](https://nycadultedlabels.nyc/auth/signin) and sign in with your NYC DOE email and password, then your **MFA authenticator code**.

<Warning>
  **MFA is required for every account** until DOE Single Sign-On is available. Set it up from **Profile** if prompted. See [User roles → Security](/user-roles#security-requirement--mfa-until-sso).
</Warning>

Your role determines which pages you can access:

| Role          | Primary starting point                                  |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| Intake Member | `/intake` (full-screen intake)                          |
| Data Member   | Dashboard (`/`) with left sidebar                       |
| Data Lead     | Dashboard + left sidebar tools                          |
| Admin         | All schools + left sidebar (including Users / Settings) |

After sign-in (except Intake Members), use the **left sidebar** to jump between Dashboard, Intake, Cabinets, Print Queue, and other tools. On mobile, open it from the **menu** button in the top bar. Press **⌘K** / **Ctrl+K** for the command palette.

See [User roles](/user-roles) for the full permission matrix.

## 3. Learn the ID system

Every student has two IDs:

* **Label ID** — short ID on the barcode and QR (e.g. `1979-JJ-0000001`)
* **Student ID** — demographic format for reporting (e.g. `JARAMILLOJAVIERR0119790522`)

Details: [Dual ID system](/reference/dual-id-system)
