How do I sign in to GoToAssist Service Desk?

    When you create a new account, or receive notification that you have a new GoToAssist Service Desk product account through your company, there are various ways you can sign in to your account based on the sign in options that have been set up.

    Sign in with an email address and password

    The majority of users have the same email address and password to sign in as they did when their account was created.

    1. Go to https://desk.gotoassist.com.
    2. Enter the email address for your account. If desired, check the box to enable the Keep me signed in option.
      Tip: The "Keep me signed in" feature allows the user to remain signed in to their GoToAssist Service Desk account as long as there is activity and the user has not cleared their web browser cache where they last signed in. After 30 days of no activity, the user will be prompted to sign in again.
      Attention:

      If the "Remember me" option was enabled before your company enforced Enterprise Sign-In (SSO) as your only sign-in method, your login session will remain unaffected, and the next time you are prompted to sign in you must use single sign-on.
    3. Click Next.
    4. Enter your account password, then click Sign in.
    5. If prompted, verify your login. Learn more about login verification.

    Sign in using single sign-on

    For some users who are part of large companies, their IT admin may have enabled and/or enforced Enterprise Sign-In (single sign-on). This means they use the same username/password to sign in to GoToAssist Service Desk as they do for other work systems (like their email or work-issued computer).
    1. Go to https://desk.gotoassist.com.
    2. Enter your company email address, then click Next.
    3. If you are not automatically redirected, you can click Continue.
    4. You will be redirected to your company's sign-in page, where you can proceed to sign in with your company credentials.

    Sign in with a social or other provider account

    You can choose to sign in using one of your existing social media or other account providers such as LastPass, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, or Apple. This ensures that while you are signed in to the social/other provider on your device, you can access your GoTo product(s) with no additional sign-in steps.
    Important: You must first sign in to your GoToAssist Service Desk account using your email address and password in order to connect a social media or other provider account.
    1. Go to https://desk.gotoassist.com.
    2. Enter the email address for your account. If desired, check the box to enable the Keep me signed in option.
      Tip: The "Keep me signed in" feature allows the user to remain signed in to their GoToAssist Service Desk account as long as there is activity and the user has not cleared their web browser cache where they last signed in. After 30 days of no activity, the user will be prompted to sign in again.
    3. Click Next.
    4. At the bottom of the screen, select your social media or other account provider sign in option for LastPass, Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, Microsoft, or Apple.
      Note: If you do not see this option, that's because you haven't connected your social/other account provider yet. Sign in using your GoToAssist Service Desk email address and password, then connect a social/other account.
    5. As long as you stay signed in to your connected social/other account on the same device, you can access GoToAssist Service Desk with no further sign in steps. If you are not signed into your social/other account, you will be prompted to sign in using that account again.

    Sign in to the Admin Center

    If you are an account administrator, you can sign in to the Admin Center at https://admin.logmeininc.com to manage your users and account settings.

    You can then use the same steps (as mentioned above) to sign in based on your account setup.

    Additionally, if you also have a GoToAssist Service Desk user account, you can access the Admin Center from the user account drop-down menu from the main toolbar in the top navigation while signed in.
