Simple steps to onboard Eklavvya
For: new institute admins
Watch this 2-minute demo to get started. The video shows the earlier interface; the steps are the same.
First sign-in
- Activate your account from the activation email.
- Sign in: choose your role in Login as, enter username, password and the CAPTCHA code.
- Set up two-factor authentication. It is mandatory for every admin user: Organisation → Organization Profile → Two-Factor Authentication, scan the QR code with an authenticator app and verify with the 6-digit code. See Two-factor authentication.
- Create a separate user for each team member (Organisation → User Profile → New). Do not share logins.
The admin panel was redesigned in September 2026. The Dashboard shows a setup checklist, and each page has a Walkthrough button. See Finding your way in the new admin interface.
The four steps to your first exam
- Build the question bank. Create subjects and topics, then add questions or import them: Question Bank → Import Data (Excel, or PDF/Word/Excel with Import Questions). The question bank is stored securely. See Import questions from PDF, Word or Excel.
- Define the exam pattern. Exam Management → Exam Creation: objective and/or subjective questions with a marking scheme, proctoring and advanced options. See How to create and manage exams.
- Create one or more schedules. Exam Management → Exam Scheduler → New: set the time window (up to 30 days). See Exam schedule rules.
- Add candidates and assign the exam. Create batches and candidates under Candidates, then assign them in Candidates → Assign To Exam and email them. See Assign a schedule to batches.
Optional setup
- Your logo, colours and exam interface languages: Organization logo, theme and email settings.
- Send emails from your own mail server: Organization Profile → Email (SMTP) Settings.
- Roles for your team: Supported user roles.
