- an owner/operator representing their business,
- an employee representing the organisation they work for, or

Setting up a login method:
There are two login methods you can use to set up your organisation to access Environment Online:
- using a Microsoft Work Account login.
- using Digital Identity via myGovID and the WARAM.
You can use either or both methods.
Setting up a Microsoft Work Account login:
- uses your entity's Microsoft Entra directory to authorise users of Environment Online.
- assumes that your entity takes responsibility for proofing the identity of users.
- requires a senior representative of your entity to authorise an IT Administrator to set up your Environment Online users.
- use the Authorisation Form to set up your entity.
- for an IT Administrator to initiate the login setup see the, Set up - Representing an entity using Microsoft Work Account login guide.
Setting up Digital Identity:
- uses Digital Identity credentials (such as myGovID) to authorise your entity's Environment Online users.
- uses Digital Identity credentials (such as myGovID) to prove the identity of users.
- requires a senior representative of your entity to authorise a Service Administrator to add users associated with the entity in the WA Relationship Authorisation Manager (WARAM)
- use the Authorisation Form to set up the initial Service Administrator for your entity.
- see Set up and log in - Representing an entity using Digital Identity.
Environment Online roles:
There are two roles you can have to represent an entity:
- Service Administrators can access online services on behalf of entities and manage authorisation for other users, including assigning projects. If using Digital Identity, at least one Service Administrator must be active for an entity to grant access to other users.
- Service Users can access online services on behalf of entities. If using Digital Identity an existing Service Administrator must grant access to Service Users.
- use the Authorisation Form to set up the initial Service Administrator for your entity.
For information on Environment Online roles see the Environment Online - Get Started guide.
Logging in:
Once the authorisations for your entity have been set up and confirmed by DWER, Service Users will be able to log in. See:
- Set up and log in - Representing an Entity using Digital Identity, or
- Log in - Representing an entity using Microsoft Work Account.
