Configure Platform Preferences

Digital Connect preferences allow you to configure default platform settings to help accomplish desired functionality. It is important to review all of the options available and apply configurations that meet your business needs.

Only Administrators  can access and setup Platform Preferences

 

You can configure your Platform Preferences by applying the following steps:

  • Login to your Digital Connect account and click on Settings > Preferences

Setup your Timezone

In the Time Zone section, you can set a default time zone for your account using the drop down menu. 

 

Enable Security

Typically, logging into Digital Connect requires just your username and password. With two-factor authentication (2FA) turned on, logging in requires verification using a code sent on your mobile phone or email address. Because logging in with 2FA requires an additional layer of security , the risk of a potential intruder gaining access to your account is much lower. In the Security section, you can enable two-factor authentication for your user accounts. 

Once enabled, your users will receive a one-time code on their registered mobile phone number and/or registered email address  to log in to their accounts.

  • You can enable two-factor authentication by toggling the button towards right side. 

  • It will prompt the modal window asking you to select the check boxes to receive code via SMS or Email
  • Select your options and click save changes

    Your users will now receive a unique code to login to their account as an added layer of security in addition to their account password.
It is recommended to enable  both SMS and Email verification to avoid the possibility of SMS OTP delivery failures

 

Auto-hide conversations
