How to Access OnBase

Web links and Client Installation

The OnBase platform has two clients for end users:

  1. Web client (browser based)
  2. Unity client (Windows only, desktop client)

To install the Unity client or access the web client, please refer to the OnBase Web Client and Unity Client Links guide. Both the web client and Unity client require that you are connected to a campus network or VPN.

Please note that the Unity client has a number of software dependencies that may require IT support for installation. Also note that the Unity client is a "ClickOnce" application and is designed to be installed by the end user on a computer, it does not require IT support for installation once the software dependencies have been met. You must initiate the install of OnBase "ClickOnce" clients using Internet Explorer or Edge only. Other browsers like Firefox and Chrome do not support ClickOnce installers and will cause the ClickOnce installation to fail if they are used when opening a ClickOnce URL. For more details please review the OnBase Technical Support page.

You can also access the Web client from the Campus Portals via the OnBase tile on the CU Resources page.

Access to OnBase Content

By default all university employees (including student employees) will have access to the OnBase platform, but limited or no access to content or processes.

For questions regarding OnBase access to student content, please reach out to your respective campus access coordinator. Each campus has module access coordinators that review and provision the appropriate access. To request access, please fill out the CU-SIS Access Request form and indicate OnBase access is needed.

For questions regarding OnBase access to any other content, please reach out to the relevant OnBase Certified Department Administrators or the UIS Enterprise Content Service Team.
