Step 2: Launch the chatbot content designer

After successfully deploying the stack, you will receive an email at the email address listed in the deployment parameters with the subject QnABot on AWS Signup Verification Code. This email contains a generated temporary password that you can use to sign in to the content designer and create your own password.

Use the following procedure to launch the content designer, reset your password, and sign in to the content designer UI.

1. Open the verification email and select the link. Alternatively, sign in to the CloudFormation console, choose this solution’s stack, select the Outputs tab, then select the ContentDesignerURL link. The content designer opens in a separate browser tab.

2. Sign in with your username and temporary password.

   1. Enter the username that you specified in the deployment parameters.

   2. Enter the temporary password from the verification email.

3. Follow the prompts to change your password and sign in. Your new password must have a length of at least eight characters, and contain at least one of each of the following: upper-case and lower-case characters, numbers, and special characters.

4. Sign in with your username and new password.

To reset the user password using the Forgot your password option on the sign in page, verify the user email.
