About FileMaker ID

FileMaker ID is an integrated sign-on system that allows you to work with files hosted by FileMaker Cloud.

To sign in to FileMaker ID:

1. In FileMaker Pro Advanced, choose File menu > Sign In to FileMaker ID.

The FileMaker ID sign-in page opens in your web browser.

If you're already signed in, you'll see the My Apps command in the File menu instead.

2. Enter your account information.

If your web browser asks you to allow it to open FileMaker Pro Advanced, allow it. When it returns you to FileMaker Pro Advanced, you will be signed in.

To sign out of FileMaker ID:

In FileMaker Pro Advanced, choose File menu > My Apps > Sign Out of FileMaker ID.

Notes 

The Sign In to FileMaker ID command and the My Apps window are not available until after you are signed up for a FileMaker Cloud subscription or free trial.
