Manage your KI ID through the ID portal

Through the new ID portal, you can perform certain tasks independently, such as upgrading your account to the higher authorisation level AL2 required for Ladok, resetting the MFA (Microsoft Authenticator), or changing your password.

Simple self-service with an electronic ID

Log into the ID portal at https://idportal.ki.se to quickly and easily upgrade your account (KI ID), change your password, or reset your MFA.

You then confirm your identity using BankID/Mobile BankID, Freja eID or eduID. If you already have the higher trust level AL2, you will be notified of this when you log in to upgrade.

A step-by-step guide to the upgrade can be found here.

If you do not have an electronic ID

If you do not have access to any of the electronic ID services above, you will need to contact your department's IDAC administrator to perform a manual ID check to upgrade your account.

Background: Swamid

Karolinska Institutet is part of SWAMID (Swedish Academic Identity Federation) and therefore needs to follow the rules that exist regarding how the digital identities of higher education institutions are managed.

As a member of SWAMID, KI can provide quality-assured and secure login for researchers, teachers, and students in various services, both in and outside Sweden.

SWAMID has different identity assurance levels for its users, where the basic level is called AL1. Today, the majority of KI's user accounts are at the AL1 level, but the higher assurance level AL2 may be required for access to more services in the future.
