      The user has been authorized to create an Online Policing Solutions Network account for this agency. Access follows the permission level assigned after approval.

      1. Open the OPS NetworkTM

        Go to https://opspolice.network. Use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or another modern browser. The network does not run on Internet Explorer or other outdated browsers.

      2. Create the account

        On the OPS CONNECTTM login page, choose Create Account under the login fields, then complete the registration page:

        • Add an appropriate profile image that clearly identifies the user. A professional photo or a selfie is required. Upload a file, or capture one live on a mobile device.
        • Full first name. No nickname, title, or rank.
        • Full last name. No nickname, title, or rank.

      3. Confirm the agency email

        The user confirms registration from the link sent to their agency email.

      4. Wait for review

        The account is reviewed and approved when the registration is completed properly.

      5. Agree to terms

        After approval, the user signs in, reads, and accepts Agree to Terms. That finishes account creation and opens the L.E.N.S. platform.

      After the first login

      The user must open their profile and add the agency address, biography, special services or skills, and the mobile phone, office phone, and email other OPS NetworkTM users should see. That profile is how authorized users find and contact them. It is not public. If it stays incomplete, the account may be suspended during automated security reviews.

      The OPS Administrator then adds permission levels, badge number, and rank or title.
