  • Manage your organisation is for tenant administrators who configure the organisation and its users.
  • API Reference is for developers integrating with Ration’s supported /apis/v1 endpoints.

Before you begin

Use the latest version of a supported browser for the Ration web application. Keep your full Ration email address available when setting up a client, and make sure your organisation’s administrator has completed any required domain verification.

If your organisation uses two-factor authentication, install a compatible TOTP authenticator before changing security settings. IMAP, POP3, and SMTP clients use an application-specific password after 2FA is enabled; see Settings for the safe setup flow.

New to Ration?

Start with registration if you are creating an organisation, or sign in if your administrator has already created your account.

Get help safely

When contacting your administrator or support, include your Ration email address, the page or client you were using, the device and app version, and a screenshot of the error where possible. Never send a password, application-specific password, recovery code, TOTP code, or QR setup code.
