@Mayakp.wiki I updated this; most of it is just so you can double-check you have the access you need, are on appropriate mailing lists, etc. There are a couple of things you'll have to do as staff, like create your Meta page & add yourself to the Staff Contact list. I also would like you to meet with Seve to chat about Better Use of Data (he's been our PM for the past few months, although he'll be transitioning to another team around the end of January).

I have Production access. However I am not marking it since I have to set up my new laptop and get access to all our systems on it.

@kzimmerman -
1] I created a new account on IRC Cloud with my staff email id. However the account is a free trial. How can I upgrade it?

2] how can I get invited to #wikimedia-staff ?

@Mayakp.wiki : Email techsupport@wikimedia.org for a license to IRC Cloud. Here's how to get access to #wikimedia-staff: https://office.wikimedia.org/wiki/ITS/IRC#Gaining_Access_to_the_#wikimedia-staff_Private_Channel

Mayakp.wiki moved this task from Needs Investigation to Backlog on the Product-Analytics board.

Was unsure whether to close or cancel this task.
Moving to Backlog, with the hopes of re-'Doing' the onboarding soon.
