Your client can't get into the portal

If your client can't open the delivery, the message they see says why. Here is what's happening in each case and what you can do from What the client sees.

What you can check

Open Delivery and What the client sees:

  1. The delivery shows in the portal has to be on.
  2. The person has to be among the people who receive it.
  3. Check the Access: with the public link, if you changed it, the old one no longer opens.
  4. In Who has signed in, click Renew in their row: they get a new link and a new password.

In those three cases, the page offers to ask you for access through your help email or WhatsApp.

If the person has no email, Bitácora shows you the password when you renew it, only once, so you can pass it on yourself.

So they can write to you

In Settings › Client portal, add a help email or WhatsApp: the sign-in screen will tell them how to write to you to ask for the password. See Put your studio's brand on the portal.

How your client gets in is in Sign in to your project's portal.
