Create and assign user grid cards

When you create a grid card for a user, IDaaS generates a grid card serial number that the user can use to register their grid card. To assign an existing grid card to a user, you need to provide the grid card serial number.

Note: The Assign a grid card procedure below provides instructions to assign a grid card to a user through the user Authenticator tab. You can also assign grid cards through the Grid Card menu. See Manage unassigned grid cards. Users can also create their own grid cards. See the IDaaS User Help for more information.
