I’m not sure what you’re asking, @JosephSciarrin0. What exactly are you trying to do?

I’m trying to sign on to the scoutbook app itself and I won’t happen cause I’m not linked to my own account

Joseph, are you a Scout or a parent?

Hi, @JosephSciarrin0,

The scouting app is only capable of connecting a parent to their youth scout. When you log in to Scoutbook via [www.scoutbook.com](http://www.scoutbook.com), do you use your my.scouting credentials or your email address?

**ETA:** If you get different dashboards logging in to Scoutbook with your email and my.scouting credentials, go into My Dashboard → My Profile → Switch SSO profile. There’s more information [here](https://help.scoutbook.com/knowledge-base/signing-on-to-scoutbook-with-single-sign-on/#single-sign-on).
