Creating a UniMaps account is a two-phase process: you fill in a registration form, then confirm your identity by clicking a link sent to your email address. Your account is not active until the verification step is complete.

What you need before you start

You need two distinct email addresses to register:
  • Primary email (email) — the address you will use to log in.
  • Secure email (secure_email) — a backup address used for two-factor authentication fallback and secure key recovery. It must be different from your primary email.
Both addresses are required. You cannot complete registration without providing them.

Required fields

FieldDescription
nombresYour given name(s). Letters and spaces only.
apellidosYour surname(s). Letters and spaces only.
emailYour primary email address. Must be unique in UniMaps.
secure_emailA backup email address, different from your primary.
passwordYour chosen password — minimum 8 characters.
password_confirmationMust match password exactly.
Name fields (nombres and apellidos) only accept letters and spaces, including accented Spanish characters. Numbers and symbols are not allowed.

Password requirements

Your password must be at least 8 characters long. The registration form shows a strength indicator as you type — aim for a score of “Fuerte” or higher by combining uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

Registration flow

1

Fill in the registration form

Navigate to the Register page and enter your first name, last name, primary email, secure backup email, and a password. Confirm the password in the second password field.
2

Submit the form

Click Crear cuenta. UniMaps sends a verification email to your primary address and shows a “Revisa tu correo” screen. Your account record is created in a pending state — it is not yet active.
3

Check your inbox

Open the verification email from UniMaps. It contains a unique confirmation link that is valid for 24 hours.
4

Click the verification link

Clicking the link opens UniMaps in your browser and automatically verifies your email address.
5

Account activated

Once verified, your account status changes to activo. UniMaps also generates your secure key (.jw file) at this point. You are redirected to the campus map.
6

Download your secure key

After your first login, a banner appears in the dashboard prompting you to download your .jw recovery file. Download and store it in a safe place immediately.

What happens after verification

When your email is confirmed, three things happen automatically:
  1. Your account is marked activo and you can log in.
  2. A unique secure key is generated and stored for your account.
  3. You are redirected to the campus map view.

The role of your secure email

Your secure_email address is not used for day-to-day login. It serves two specific purposes:
  • Two-factor authentication fallback — if your primary inbox is unavailable, the 2FA code can be retrieved via your secure address.
  • Secure key delivery — if you lose your .jw recovery file, you can request that UniMaps send it to your secure email address.
Keep your secure email address accessible. If you lose both your password and your .jw file, and you no longer have access to your secure email, account recovery will not be possible.

Resending the verification email

If the verification link expires or you don’t receive the email, click Reenviar correo on the verification screen. A new link will be sent to your primary email address. Each link is valid for 24 hours.
POST /api/auth/resend-verification

{
  "email": "tu@correo.com"
}
