Enter the Guest User's email address in the Username field, then create a password that can be easily distributed to the user. Then, type in the name of the user, which will appear on records that the Guest User creates or edits.

Step 3: Select the user type

In the User Type field, select the 'Guest' option. This will indicate that the user has very limited access to forms and data in Apricot.

Login instructions will be sent to the email address on file; the user should click the login link, enter their email and password shared by their Administrator, then reset their own password.

 

Note: The login link contained in the invite email is only valid for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the user must reset their password using the Forgot Password option on the Apricot login page or reach out to an Administrator to force a password reset following the steps in this article.
