About and How to Use These Help Pages

About: These help pages are designed to help Event Hosts use Splash, the SaaS that Mozilla is using for Event Management. If you are host a Mozilla Event, then this the place for you!

How to Use These Help Pages: The pages are divided up by features with the exception of the 'Getting Started' section. In many cases we link to the vendor's help site. This will happen when we both use a feature 'out of the box' and when we believe their documentation is strong. This allows us to keep the documention current with less maintainence.

There are many unique to Mozilla features that we outline on the pages themselves. This should ensure that there is self-service support for our specific use cases. If something seems out of date, please send a message to the support team or update the page. Thanks!

Login / Process

All Mozilla staff and contributors are able to access Splash through Mozilla IAM.
Splash implemented group permission integration with Mozillians Access Groups, which means people get access to Splash features depending on the access groups they belong to in mozillians.org.

How to access Splash:
1. Log in into your sso dashboard
2. Look for this icon

You're in! Events Dashboard page will be displayed, so you can start creating events.
