  1. If your organization uses Security Groups, click View and assign the groups this user needs access to.
  2. Click Create.

What Happens Next

The new user will receive an email asking them to complete sign-up.

  • Every user needs the company Passphrase to decrypt the vault and finish setup. You can provide it directly or send it via Think Vault.
  • Site Deluxe Administrators have full control in Think Vault. Site Deluxe Users have standard access.

On first login, the user will need to click the Request Passphrase button. You will then need to send them the Passphrase email.

Remember: Unless your configuration gives everyone access to all passwords, you will need to assign the new user to the appropriate Security Groups before they can see any shared credentials.
