With your portal, you can choose whether to send the activation email when creating your clients' Vaults or after. Here are some instructions on how to do it.
- From your Client List
- From your Client Detail page
- In what status must the Vault be in to send the activation email?
- Recommendations
Please note that if your system currently has a Single Sign-On (SSO) integration enabled, you may skip this action since the status will depend on the integration. If the integration is not active yet, you may send the activation email to your client. Please ensure you used the same email address in the Vault as the one used in the integrated system.
From your Client List
Step 1.2: In your 'Client List', right-click on your client’s name or select multiple clients.
- Click on the Status header to use the filter.
- Select 'Created'.
- Select all.
- Click on 'Send Activation Email'.

Step 1.2: From the Actions menu, click on 'Send Activation Email'.
- Select the client.
- Click on the Actions button on the top right.
- Click 'Send Activation Email'.
Step 2: Confirm this action
- Click 'Send' to confirm that you want to send the activation email to your client(s).

- The email will be sent to the email address set up when you created the Vault and will contain their login email, a temporary password, and the URL they should bookmark to access it next time. (see sample below)

Once you send the activation email, the status of the Vault will change from "Created" to "Invited". If you noticed an error in the email, you will be able to edit the profile and resend the activation email while the Vault is on still on Invited status.
From your Client Detail page
Step 1: In your 'Client List', right-click on your client’s name.
Step 2: Select the option 'See Details' from the menu.
Step 3: In the details page, click on 'Actions' and select 'Send Activation Email'.

Step 4: Confirm this action.
- Click 'Send' to confirm that you want to send the activation email to your client.
- The email will be sent to the email set up when you created the Vault.

Once you send the activation email the status of the Vault will change from 'Created' to 'Invited'. If you noticed an error in the email, you can edit the profile and repeat the steps.
In what status must the Vault be in to send the activation email?
You can send an activation email when the Vault has any of these statuses and in these circumstances:
| STATUS | DESCRIPTION |
| Created | At any time, follow the steps above. |
| Invited | You send the activation email, but the user hasn't completed the account activation. |
| Active + No Last Login Date | The user clicked on the email but didn't set the new password or accept the terms and conditions. You will notice that, in this case, the user doesn't have a last login date recorded, but the status is Active. Learn more about activation errors.![]() |
Recommendations
We always recommend calling or emailing before the system sends the activation email; that way, your client will expect it. If they don't find it in their inbox, ask them to check their Spam / Junk folder, and whitelist this email to be able to receive future emails like resetting passwords, notifications, etc.
