Connect and sign in

The first time you open Allspice Desktop, connect it to your Allspice server. Then sign in with your Allspice account.

Beta: Allspice Desktop is in beta and available only to select organizations, as of October 13, 2026. Features, supported systems and these instructions may change between releases, and some features may be incomplete. If your organization doesn't see the Download Allspice Desktop button in Allspice Hub, it isn't part of the beta yet. Contact your Allspice account team to learn more. We welcome your feedback.

Connect to your Allspice server

1. In Your Allspice server address, enter the address you use to open Allspice in your browser.
   For example, enter company.allspice.io.
2. Select Continue.

The app checks that the address belongs to an Allspice server before it saves it.

If the app can't reach the server, it shows a message. Check the address and your network or VPN connection, then select Try again.

If you don't know your server address, ask your organization's Allspice administrator.

2. In your browser, sign in to Allspice if it asks you to.

If sign-in fails

The app tells you what went wrong, such as a timeout, a denied request, or a server it can't reach. Select Retry or Sign in with Allspice to try again.
