Access ThingLink

Accessing and signing in to ThingLink for the first time will create and establish your ThingLink account.

There are two different ways you can access and use ThingLink on the University of Arizona campus. You can use it in relation to a Brightspace course where only those enrolled in that course will have access to your ThingLink activity. You can also use it outside of Brightspace by signing in to ThingLink's website where you will have broader sharing capabilities.
