* Set up **multi-factor authentication (MFA)** via SMS or authenticator app.\
  MFA is required for all users and provides a fallback option for verification.

### Step 3. Create Your Bioprint Profile

After account creation, you will be prompted to create both a **facial** and **audio** profile.

**Create Facial Profile**

* Facial flow: look straight, then turn right, then left.

#### Create Audio Profile

* Read a randomized passage aloud (\~15–20 seconds), preview, and re-record if desired.

After this step, your profile will have successfully been created! This complete profile is known as your **bioprint**, used in every live verification session.

### Step 4. Land on the Admin Quickstart Dashboard

After onboarding you'll be directed to the **admin Quickstart dashboard**, which guides you through three key setup tasks:

* Connect your **calendar (Google or Microsoft)** for automatic meeting sync
* Invite your **first team member or candidate**
* Schedule and run your **first Validia-authenticated meeting**

### Step 5. Set Up Your Calendar Integration

* Grant OAuth access to your Google Workspace or Microsoft account.
* Once synced, your upcoming meetings will populate the Meetings page automatically.

### Step 6. Invite Your First User

#### Option A: **Manual Invite**

* Go to the **Organization** tab.
* Click **Send Signup Code**, enter email, select role (admin, candidate, vendor).
* The user receives an onboarding link via email and appears as pending until they complete setup.<br>

#### Option B: **ATS/HR Integration**

* If you have connected Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, or similar, candidate and employee records are synced automatically.
* The system sends onboarding invites for those marked as candidates or roles requiring bioprint setup.

### Step 7: Schedule & Test Your First Verified Meeting

* Schedule a meeting in Zoom, Teams, Meet, or Webex with someone who has completed onboarding.
* The Validia bot will join automatically before the meeting start time and perform verification discreetly.
