Allow Infomaniak to access your products / Complete a support request

This guide explains how to authorize Infomaniak Support to access your online products and more specifically their content, and provide useful details when requesting assistance.

 

Preamble

  • Infomaniak Support may ask you to grant temporary access to part of your content.
  • This access is strictly limited to the analysis context and is used solely to identify the source of the problem encountered.
  • It saves time in diagnosing by avoiding unnecessary back and forth.
  • In accordance with Infomaniak's privacy policy, your data will never be used for other purposes.

 

Authorize Support to access a type of content

To authorize Infomaniak to access a specific part of your services (authorizing access to content never opens access to others; each authorization is specific and independent):

  1. Click here to access the management of accesses on the Infomaniak Manager.
  2. Click on the toggle switch to authorize access to the content of…
    1. email addresses linked to the Web Mail app Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).
    2. folders among the kDrive(s) existing in the Organizations of which the current user is a part.
    3. discussions among the kChat product(s) existing in the Organizations of which the current user is a part.

Who can access it?

  • Only Infomaniak employees handling your support request directly.

  • Otherwise, it expires automatically after 7 days.

 

You can also share a single specific email very easily.
