Accred documentation

To start with Accred, create your organization in Accred Hub; you become its Owner. Turn on the apps you need, invite your team with a shareable invite link, and assign Consult and Migrate seats person by person. Assess also starts without an account. The quick starts below cover the first steps in each app.

Accred Hub: create your organization

  1. Create your organization in Hub. You become its Owner and land on Overview.
  2. Turn on the apps you need. Turning on Consult or Migrate starts a 30-day free trial with up to 10 seats; Connect is free.
  3. Invite members with a shareable invite link. Invitation emails are still being set up.
  4. Assign Consult and Migrate seats person by person. Assess and Manage need no seat.
  5. Open any app from the top-bar tabs. An app you cannot open stays listed with the reason.

Who can open what is explained in roles, seats, and app access.

Accred Consult: first client and project

  1. Open Consult from Hub.
  2. Add a client and its contacts.
  3. Create a project with phases and tasks, and attach documents for approval.
  4. Triage support tickets and share a client-scoped portal link for visible support work.
  5. Log time against the project or ticket.
  6. Optionally, connect your organization’s Microsoft Teams channel for alerts.

Automated client emails and tenant discovery are coming soon; until then Consult does not send messages or contact Microsoft.

Accred Migrate: first migration project

  1. Open Migrate from Hub and add a client. The guided checklist walks from adding a client to running a pilot.
  2. Connect the client’s source and destination tenants.
  3. Import and review mappings, then run read-only prechecks.
  4. Run a pilot, then migrate in scheduled waves.
  5. Validate, cut over, and certify.

Runs execute on a secure runner that must be online. Migrate is in early access; no workload has finished real-tenant validation yet.

Accred Connect: enroll a device

  1. An Owner or Admin turns Connect on in Hub. It is free, with no seats.
  2. Create an enrollment installer for a client and location.
  3. Run the installer on a Windows device. The preview installer is not yet code-signed, so Windows shows an unknown-publisher warning.
  4. The device appears with its online status, last check-in, and inventory.
  5. Revoke the installer when it should stop working.

Owners and Admins manage devices; other members view inventory. Remote screen, files, and PowerShell are coming soon.

Accred Assess: run a readiness assessment

  1. Start a free assessment. No account or card is needed.
  2. Record your decisions on the priority controls.
  3. To connect Microsoft 365 for read-only discovery and save results to your organization, sign in with Hub.
  4. For all 67 controls, framework alignment, and the full report, buy the expanded assessment: $99 one-time per organization.

Discovery observations never change the readiness score. Results are advisory readiness, not compliance or certification.

Accred Manage: connect your tenant

  1. Open Manage from Hub. Every role except Viewer can open it, with no seat.
  2. Connect your Microsoft 365 tenant and grant administrator consent.
  3. Work the findings queue, ranked by severity.
  4. Run access reviews and new-joiner workflows. Each ends in a verified, pending, partial, failed, or manual result.

Manage works with one tenant per organization. Changes that remove or delete anything stay off for now.

Status, changes, and help
