What are Accounts?
Accounts are used to define external customer accounts when Unthread is being used with customers external to your organization. You can add Accounts from the Workspace Settings --> Accounts.
What settings are defined at the Account level?
- Account Name
- Associated email domain(s) of the Account organization
- Associated Slack Channels (#account name-Unthread)
- Hubspot Integration & Synced CRM contacts if applicable
- SLA Override Configuration to create an SLA specific to a customer Account rather than using the Project or Channel level SLA settings
- Primary and Secondary Support Representatives defined for this Account within your organization
- Account Admins designated within the customer Account
Accounts and the External Customer Portal
If you enable your Unthread hosted External Customer Portal and require authentication for your external customers to access the portal, one of the authentication options is to "Restrict Login to Account Domains." When enabled, only individuals using an email domain associated with one or more of your Accounts will be able to access the External Customer Portal via authentication.
