Shared Workspace uses the RealMe login service. The RealMe login service is a way to use the same logon, such as a username and password to securely access government online services. This saves you from having to remember multiple logon details for different websites.
You will also be able to manage your own logon (change your password, reset your
password, view your activity, update your logon details) anytime you like
through the RealMe website at https://www.realme.govt.nz.
You can view information about the RealMe login service by visiting the
following site: https://www.realme.govt.nz.
The RealMe login service is owned and operated by the Department of Internal Affairs.

password and view your activity anytime you like.

You will be prompted to update your password every 12 months. You can change
it more frequently if you wish by using the "Manage my RealMe" function on the
RealMe website. You can also access this function through the menu button "Manage
my RealMe" on your Shared Workspace home page.

You can bookmark each workspace once you successfully login to the site. Alternatively, where you are a member of more than one workspace, you can choose to bookmark https://see.govt.nz.
Once you have logged on, that link will show a list of all your shared workspaces
* For enhanced security never follow a link from an email, to a secure
website, to login. The most secure way to get to a new website is by typing in
or pasting the URL in your browser and then bookmarking it for ongoing access.

A workspace is a secure, interactive website where members can add, update
and manage their own content. You must be an invited member in order to gain
access. Members can be from a mix of agencies, non-government people and private
sector organisations.

A new site is $2250 p.a. with a one-off $500 setup fee (excl. GST). There are no limits on the number of users to
a site and DIA do not bill according to band width consumed. Sites are limited to 7 GB in storage capacity and the maximum
individual file size to upload is 100MB. The Shared Workspace utilizes Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) thus it is possible to expand the standard 7 GB storage allocation - pricing is $1.36 per month per 1GB and
will be added to the annual fee.

Annual Fees are charged to the lead agency in order to partially recover set
up, training, hosting, and maintenance costs. Members are responsible for their
