What is the Registry and what can I use it for?

The Registry is a tool with which IT accounts and their access permissions are centrally managed at DESY. The Registry provides persons who are in possession of a DESY account with the following functions, among others:

• Change of your DESY password for access to various services (e.g. Windows, e-mail account).
• Change of your DESY WLAN password (only for WLAN authorized accounts).
• Viewing the data of your DESY account(s).
• Accepting and viewing your personal user agreements.
• Contact information for the administration and supervision responsible for you.
   

How do I access the Registry?

The Registry can be accessed on the internal network via a web browser with the following address: https://registry.desy.de - From the time of the changeover in Q4 2022, the web interface of the new Registry version can be accessed this way.

Login:

For the login, you need:

• Your DESY account username
• The password associated with your DESY account
• If it is not a new account, you additionally require the one-time password generated via your authenticator app (e.g., PrivacyIdea) on your phone, or sent to you via email or SMS, provided you have configured these options at
  https://password.desy.de. Should you use a YubiKey for your account, you can use that one, too.

Should you have access to multiple accounts, you can log in using them. In such cases, please use the respective account name and the password assigned to that account. As a rule, for additional accounts belonging to you, the one-time password configured for your primary account—generated via your authenticator app (e.g., PrivacyIdea) on your phone—will work.

 

How do I get support for the Registry?

If you have any questions or problems, please read this documentation. Your case may have already been addressed in the Registry 2 FAQ. If you still need support, please contact your namespace administrator or the UCO (uco@desy.de, Tel: 5005).
