IdentiKey - Account Provisioning and Activation

Students

IdentiKeys are created when you are accepted to the University of Colorado at Boulder. After being accepted, you can activate your IdentiKey by following the instructions below.

Faculty/Staff

When your information is entered into the payroll system, your IdentiKey will be set for creation. This process may take up to 48 hours. To activate your IdentiKey see the instructions below. If you cannot activate your account, ask your payroll liaison to check on your entry.

Groups, Sponsored, or Retirees
