Getting started in the portal

Account confirmation

On launch day, we sent you an email with your login instructions for the my.idscan.net portal. Here, you can manage your subscription and any users who have access to the ParseLink Device Management Portal.

Before you get started:

Please check your email inbox (or spam folder) for an email from hello@idscan.net sent on April 23, 2024 with the subject line Registration on IDScan.net

To get signed into the ParseLink Dashboard, click this link to open the device manager.

You will be presented with a login to your my.idscan.net account, a unified account that manages products and subscriptions across all platforms.

Enter the credentials in the welcome email to the login page.

Once logged in, you can see your ParseLink subscription dashboard and device management. 

You don't need to do anything in the portal to upgrade from WizzForms to ParseLink. You just want to confirm your account details are correct. By following the rest of this guide, your devices should automatically appear in your device management page.

Get started on your WizzForms PC

Prepping your PC

Using a Regula 7017 Global Scanner?

Make sure to deselect the scanner before performing the upgrade to ParseLink.

In the Right-Click Menu, select Image Scanning > Page Reader Settings and set the active scanner to None.

Make sure that WizzForms is not set to launch automatically at startup. This may cause conflicts with ParseLink and WizzForms in the future.

  • Right-click on the WizzForms tray icon.
  • Ensure that the Launch WizzForms on system startup checkbox is unchecked.

Once that's confirmed, exit WizzForms.

  • Right-click on the WizzForms system tray icon.
  • Select Exit from the popup menu.

Installing ParseLink

Download the ParseLink installer from our downloads page.

Run the ParseLinkSetup.msi installer.

Installing ParseLink on your PC requires admin rights on your PC. Contact your IT team for assistance if you are not able to run programs with elevated privileges.

Accept the license agreement and click next until the installer prompts you to install.

Once completed, click Finish to exit the installer.

How can I verify everything copied correctly?
