This article explains how to sign in to ShopMonitor and find your way around the main navigation after login.
Key functions
Sign in
- Open the login screen and sign in with your email (Auth0).
- Sessions stay valid for a long time (about 30 days), so you rarely need to sign in again.
Dashboard
- After login you land on the Dashboard — your account home with an overview of recent activity.
Global navigation
The top navigation is available on every page:
- Dashboard — home overview.
- Websites — list of all monitored websites.
- Clients — manage client portfolios (see Plan availability).
- Add Website — start the wizard to add a new website and test flow.
- Settings (gear icon) — account preferences, billing, and more.
Language
- Switch between English and German on the login screen or in Settings.
Client scope filter
- A dropdown in the navigation (when available) limits the Websites list to a specific client or to unassigned websites.
- Only shown on Pro/Agency plans when you have at least one client (see Plan availability).
Runs counter
- Shown in the navigation: used / monthly limit of test runs.
- Click it to open the Plans page.
- On Pro/Agency, a popover also shows a per-client breakdown of run usage.
Trial reminder banner
- During an active trial, a banner may remind you how much trial time remains.
Expired trial
- When the trial has expired, the account becomes read-only.
- You can still browse past data (runs, websites, settings).
- You cannot start new or scheduled runs.
- You are redirected to the Plans page when you try restricted actions.
Plan availability
- Clients navigation link — Pro and Agency plans only.
- Client scope filter — Pro and Agency plans only, and only when at least one client exists.
Tips
- If you are sent to the login screen unexpectedly, your session may have expired — sign in again.
- Use the runs counter to check remaining monthly capacity before starting many manual tests.
