LingoBot Dashboard Setup

The next step in the configuration process is to create a Dashboard user account for LingoBot. This step is also crucial to the functionality of the bot itself, so it is very important that these steps are followed carefully.

  • Navigate to your Lingoport Dashboard instance in a web browser.

Create the Lingoport Dashboard lingobot user

  • Log in as the administrator account.
    • The default credentials are username: "admin", password: "admin".
  • From the top navigation bar, select the "Administration" tab.
  • The following page should have a drop-down menu near the top of the screen labeled "Security"
    • From this drop-down menu, select "Users"
  • On the right side of this page, click "Create User" and a form overlay should appear. Fill this form with the following information:
    • Login: "lingobot"
    • Name: "LingoBot"
    • Email: "lingobot@lingoport.com"
    • Password: Choose a secure password.
  • Click "Create", and a new user row should appear on the "Users" page.

Configure the lingobot user

  • Under the "GROUPS" column, click the small blue menu icon on the row corresponding to the newly created user account. An overlay should appear.
    • In this overlay, select the "Deselected" tab.
    • Check the box labeled "sonar-administrators", then click done.
  • Under the "TOKENS" column, click the small blue menu icon on the row corresponding to the newly created user account. Another overlay should appear.
    • In the "Generate Tokens" field, enter a token name (this can be anything. i.e. "lingobot") and click the "Generate" button.
    • Click the "Copy" button that appears, or select and copy the API token that has appeared.
  • Paste the API token into the LingoBot configuration file next to the LINGOBOT_DASHBOARD_TOKEN variable declaration.

Example:

export LINGOBOT_DASHBOARD_TOKEN=1234567890abcdef14d4f2789bea4f22a
export LINGOBOT_DASHBOARD_URL=http://acme.company.com

Once this is complete, you're done configuring this part of LingoBot! The remaining configuration steps depend on which collaboration environment you will be using to communicate with LingoBot.
