Why Are We Making This Change?

This upgrade aligns Trimble Unity Construct with the modern Trimble ecosystem, ensuring your team benefits from the latest advancements in security and seamless connectivity

  • Enhanced Security Standards: Trimble ID elevates security for all user accounts by continuously aligning our authentication system with the latest cybersecurity best practices. Key features include default Two-Step Verification (2SV) and improved Single Sign-on (SSO) capabilities.
  • Unified Access: Trimble ID credentials now grant access to the broader Trimble ecosystem. Trimble Unity Construct users with multiple Construct profiles associated with the same email address will benefit from a unified experience.
  • Foundation for Future Innovation: Trimble ID is a prerequisite for enabling future features and advanced technologies, such as AI, by providing robust security and a unified platform.

What is Changing?

We are elevating the security and user experience of Trimble Unity Construct by transitioning from legacy application-specific credentials to the corporate standard: Trimble ID.

  • New Login Credentials: While the username is retained, users will no longer use their legacy Construct password. Instead, they will log in using their email address and new Trimble ID password.
  • Security Upgrade: Includes Two-Step Verification (2SV) by default and offers Single Sign-on (SSO) capabilities.
  • Username Consistency: Existing Trimble Unity Construct usernames will remain the same and will not change during this process.

What is Trimble ID?

Trimble ID (TID) is Trimble’s identity provider service, enabling customers to log in to TID-enabled applications with a single set of credentials. Trimble ID includes Two-Step Verification (2SV) by default and offers enhanced Single Sign-on (SSO), providing increased security and enabling customers to easily use other Trimble cloud services.

Trimble ID is used to store and enforce passwords policy, including password length, complexity, history, expiration, and number of login attempts before lockout.


Account Administrator Process to Enable Trimble ID

For general Trimble ID guidance, see the Trimble ID page.


User Process to Setup Trimble ID

For general Trimble ID guidance, see the Getting Started with Trimble ID page.

Each user must use the link provided in the invitation email to complete signing up with TID. Note that users must set a Two-Step Verification (2SV) at account creation.

Creating or having a Trimble ID outside the invitation does NOT grant access to Trimble Unity Construct!


Trimble ID for Public Folders

Trimble Unity Construct is transitioning Public Folder authentication to Trimble ID (TID).

 

  • This change applies only to Public Folders authentication. It DOES NOT affect the main Trimble Unity Construct login process.
  • This change applies only if the Public Folder permissions settings are configured as "Require registration to access" and “Allow uploads to public folder”.

Why Are We Making This Change?

This upgrade aligns the Unity Construct Public Folders with the modern Trimble ecosystem, ensuring your team benefits from the latest security and connectivity advancements.

  • Consistent Experience: This change aligns the Public Folders with the broader Trimble Unity Construct transition to Trimble ID, providing a single identity across all modules.
  • Enhanced Security Standards: Trimble ID makes all user accounts more secure by keeping its login up-to-date with the newest ways to protect against cyber threats. Key features include default Two-Step Verification (2SV).

What is Changing?

We're improving Trimble Unity Construct Public Folders by switching from the old username and password login to Trimble ID, the company's standard sign-in system.

  • New Login Credentials: Users must create a Trimble ID account to gain access to the Public folders when the “Require registration to access” and “Allow uploads to public folder” settings are enabled.
  • Security Upgrade: Includes Two-Step Verification (2SV) by default.

Who is Affected?

Trimble ID is mandatory for all Public Folders users who require registration to access and have permissions to upload files.

Exception: Public folders access that does not require a Trimble ID.

  • "Allow access without registration" setting is enabled
  • “Require registration to access” setting is enabled, and “Allow uploads to public folder” is OFF
