Alternate Email for New Users

The Alternate email account can be used as a secondary email address, such as a non-company email account. This email address might be used during onboarding when users don鈥檛 have access to their company email account yet.
 

There are two different types of new user emails, depending on whether you want to create users with or without passwords.聽They are the Activation email and the Welcome email. These emails are sent when changing a user state to Active, which can be scheduled or done manually. Activating a user immediately gives that user access to all assigned resources and applicable policies in 黑料海角91入口. See聽Manage User States to learn more about scheduling or manually activating users.

Activation Email Versus Welcome Email

Activation email聽- sent to new users that have not set up their passwords and are in Password Pending status. The email can be sent to an email address of your choosing.
Welcome email聽- sent to users that have passwords set by their administrators and are in Active status. The email is sent to the company email address.
