Pollen Sense Portal Overview
How to use the Pollen Sense Portal
The Pollen Sense Portal (portal.pollensense.com) is your central hub for managing APS-400 sensors and accessing the data they collect. You’ll use the Portal to monitor sensor performance, review environmental data, view sensor imagery, manage team access, and more specific pages.
Joining Your Organization
When a sensor is purchased, the buyer provides an email address to our sales team. That email is sent an invitation to join a Pollen Sense Organization—typically named after the business or individual who made the purchase.
If you’re the person who purchased the sensor:
-
Check your inbox for an email from Pollen Sense with the subject line: "Finish Setting Up Your Pollen Sense Account."
-
Click the link in the email and create your account using the same email address that received the invite.
-
Verify your email address, then log in at portal.pollensense.com.
-
Once logged in, you’ll see a green “Accept” button next to your Organization's name — click it to join.
You’ll now have access to your sensor(s) and can continue setup using the Particle Sense app.
If you did not purchase the sensor:
You may still need to set up the sensor or help manage the account. In that case:
-
Option 1: Create a Portal account using the same email used by the purchaser (if you have access to it).
-
Option 2: Ask the purchaser or your Pollen Sense sales representative to add your email to the Organization so you can be invited.
Note: Avoid using generic or shared email addresses like “info@company.com,” as these often block or misroute support communications.
Creating Your Account
If you didn’t receive an invite or need to manually create your account:
-
Go to portal.pollensense.com.
-
Click “Sign in or Register” in the top-right corner.
-
Follow the instructions to register with your email and password.
-
Once verified, you can join your Organization if you’ve been invited, or request access via your sales rep.
Navigating the Portal
After logging in, you’ll see a black navigation bar at the top with three main sections:
