Very occasionally Databook's authentication processes may not work with certain browser configurations, preventing you from logging into Databook.


โ€‹

First, check that you are using a browser that Databook supports

Databook is optimized for Chrome or Firefox. We recommend using one of these browsers when using Databook.

Next check how you should be logging into Databook

If your organization uses Single-Sign-On (SSO), then you may need to log into Databook from your SSO dashboard rather than via the Databook login page.ย 

Please contact the Databook team or your organization's Databook admin to check.

Then try this next...

If you should be logging in via the Databook login page, we suggest carrying out a hard refresh of the login page as a first step.

To do this:

  1. Navigate to the Databook login page.

  2. Hard refresh the page (Chrome, Mozilla or Internet Explorer for Windows Ctrl+F5; Chrome or Mozilla for Mac cmd+Shift+R)

If that doesn't work, try these steps...

  • Make sure that third-party cookies are enabled, as these are needed for the authentication process

  • Clear browser cache and cookies
