Accessing Need Connect
There are a few ways to access Need Connect.
Direct Link
The Need Connect application is hosted on our shared server and is directly connected to your MinistryPlatform system. The three sections of Need Connect include:
- Connect Form (
/needconnect) - Connect Board (
/needconnect/board) - My Assignments (
/needconnect/assignments)
Copy the URL below, paste it into your browser, replace "churchname" with your church's name in your MP base URL, and go!
https://[churchname].ministryplatform.cloud/needconnect
- For self-hosted churches, let's say your Platform URL is https://name.org/ministryplatform. Your Need Connect URL would be https://name.ministryplatform.cloud/needconnect.
- For cloud-hosted (for example, Higher Ground) churches, let's say your Platform URL is https://name.ministryplatform.com/mp. Your Need Connect URL would be https://name.ministryplatform.cloud/needconnect.
Tip: The URL is the same as your BMT URL but with /needconnect instead of /batchmanager.
Via MinistryPlatform
If you can log in to the Platform, you can use the Connect Suite bookmark. Click the Bookmarks icon , and click Life Suite. Once you're in Connect Suite, click Need Connect in the navigation menu to see the dashboard.
