Getting started
Welcome to Notory. This guide takes you from sign-in to your first managed asset in a few minutes.
1. Sign in
Open your instance (e.g. https://inventory.your-company.com) and sign in with your admin credentials. On first launch you create the first tenant and an administrator.
2. Tenants & roles
Notory is multi-tenant. Each tenant has its own data; users are assigned roles:
- Super admin / admin - administration, settings, license.
- Manager / technician - create and edit data.
- Viewer - read only.
3. Create your first asset
Open Assets → Add asset, choose the type and fill in name, serial number and optionally financial/lifecycle data (purchase price, depreciation, EOL). Every asset gets a QR code.
4. Capture automatically
Instead of manual entry (Pro and up):
- Discovery - network scan via
Discovery → New scan; import found devices as assets with a click. - Inventory agent - create an agent under
Discovery → Inventory Agents, download it and run it on endpoints; OS and installed software are reported automatically.
5. Check license status
Under Admin → License you see the plan, limits, active modules and the instance ID of this installation. Details: Licensing.
Next: Installation (self-hosted) or Licensing.
