# Accessing the user console

Users access the user console to manage and monitor privileged access across their organization. There are two ways to get to the user console, depending on whether you're using the Endpoint Controller-based or No Endpoint Controller-based deployment method.

## Accessing the user console in Endpoint Controller-based deployments

1. Click the Endpoint Controller icon located in the system tray on Windows devices or in the menu bar on macOS devices to toggle the visibility of the PingOne Privilege App window.

2. When the PingOne Privilege app window is open, ensure that the Endpoint Controller is in a connected state.

3. Click **Open Console**.

4. A web browser tab opens `https://console.tun.procyon.ai` or `https://local.procyon.ai:8643` (when VPN interop mode is enabled). You can also open these URLs directly from your web browser.

## Accessing the user console in No Endpoint Controller-based deployments

In No Endpoint Controller-based deployments, users can access the user console directly through their PingOne environment.
