Managing Client Access via Manage Group Members

The Manage Group Members feature lets administrators efficiently manage client and guest access to specific vaults. This feature enables you to add new users, update email addresses, or remove access to ensure clients and guests have the correct vault permissions.

  Note

Vaults are created using folder templates. Refer to Manage Folder Templates for an overview of client contact access settings.

Adding Guests and Clients

  1. Sign in to the SmartVault Portal.
  2. Select View Files and Folders in the left sidebar.

  Tip

Ensure the email address entered is the one the user will use to log in to SmartVault.

Removing Guests and Clients

  2. Click Remove next to the user's email to remove their access to the vault.

  Important

Removing a user's access to a vault does not remove their SmartVault portal access. To remove their access to SmartVault entirely, refer to Managing and Reducing User Licenses in SmartVault.
