Update your AMP Analytics Portal contacts today!
Keeping your organization’s contacts up-to-date on the AMP Analytics Portal ensures your team receives AMP results, AMP program updates, and additional program communications. New users must be added as a contact for your organization to have access to any information on the AMP Analytics Portal.
Your organization’s primary contact is responsible for managing portal access, including updating contacts on behalf of your organization. If you are the primary contact at your organization, follow these easy steps to update your portal contacts today.
To add contacts:
Go to "Contacts," and click the "Add Contacts" button
Search for the contact you want to add by typing in their email address using all lowercase letters Note: The contact you are trying to add must already have an account.
