In this release, we are excited to introduce the Trusted Portal feature, which functions as a similar functionality as our trusted browser.
This feature offers numerous benefits to our customers, including the ability to change where actions are processed and significantly reduce the load on administrators' phones. Now, all actions can be seamlessly processed directly from the browser, allowing administrators to continue their work while these actions are being executed.
Simplifying How Administrators Process Organizational Actions
Trusted Portal is similar to how Trusted Browser works. When you activate Trusted Portal as an administrator, you trust your browser to verify and process your administrative events instead of having to verify and process them through your Uniqkey mobile app.
In essence, this new feature helps administrators speed up how they process organizational events like
-
Provisioning and inviting employees
-
Creating and managing groups
-
Creating and managing logins, secure notes, and payment cards
Beforehand, you had to process these events through their mobile app.
With Trusted Portal, you can now delegate this task to your browser, easing the load on your phone and letting you do other work while the events are being processed.
How To Enable Trusted Portal
To start using Trusted Portal, you can enable this feature as an organization setting.
Once enabled, administrators can request access to the Trusted Portal from the Admin Portal. Similar to Trusted Browser , administrators will receive a request in their app and must accept it to begin using the Trusted Portal. As long as they remain logged in, all events will be performed directly within the browser.
Preventing Incomplete Actions
Regardless of whether you choose to enable or disable the Trusted Portal feature, it is essential for administrators to keep either their mobile app or their browser open while any events is in progress. Closing these platforms before the events has finished processing will result in incomplete events, and customers may not see all the desired data.
To fix this issue, we have introduced feature in the Admin Portal, where administrators can conveniently redirect ongoing processing of new employees to be handled by the Trusted Portal, instead of the mobile app.
