We recommend Element as the matrix client to access the CIM Matrix server. You can either install the Element application to your device (available on most platforms), or you can use the web interface available at: https://element.cim.mcgill.ca/

When you open Element, you'll need to sign into the CIM matrix server You will need to tell Element which server to join by changing the url of the home server (if using the web interface, you do not need to follow this step as the web interface will only connect to matrix.cim.mcgill.ca) Set the homeserver url to matrix.cim.mcgill.ca You can then sign in with your CIM matrix username and password. Once logged in, you'll want to join the CIM space by clicking the + icon Select Search for public spaces And select the Centre for Intelligent Machines Space And click Join to add the space to your client

For security reasons, you cannot change your password from within Matrix. To change your password, you can visit: https://swordfish.cim.mcgill.ca/.
