This guide explains how to quickly create/obtain a password from an Infomaniak Mail Service when you need to access an Infomaniak email address on third-party software, such as Outlook or Thunderbird.

 

Preamble

  1. When creating an email address, no password is set:
  2. You then simply create specific passwords for each device (Outlook, iPhone, CRM, etc.) as needed:
    • You can create multiple passwords for the same email address without interrupting existing connections.
    • Each password can be revoked individually, without affecting other users or devices linked to this address.
    • A password is never displayed again after its creation; modify it or create a new one if necessary.

 

Generate an email password

Prerequisites

If you cannot complete these steps because you receive different information on the screen, you probably lack the necessary rights if you were not the original creator of the email address — refer to this other guide — an administrator can, for example, add the email address directly to your Web Mail app or send you a link allowing you to generate a password yourself.

 

To add a password to the example address demonstration@example-domain.ch:

  1. Enter the login credentials for your Infomaniak account and its password on the page https://manager.infomaniak.com/:
  2. Validate the entry on the Manager with the 2FA (two-factor authentication) method initially defined:
  3. Once on the dashboard, click on Mail Service:
  4. Once on your Mail Services, click on the name/domain name to which the email address in question belongs:
  5. Once on the Mail Service to which the address belongs, click on the email address in question:
  6. Once on the email address in question, click on the Devices tab and then on Add a device:
  7. It may be necessary at this stage to re-enter the login password (the one at point B above):
  8. Then choose to not specify a particular user ("Without user").
  9. Enter a descriptive name that allows you to identify the reason why you created this device (here the user needs a password to be able to send emails from a site, and they add as useful information today's date):
  10. There you go: the new password is displayed, you can change the characters (16 minimum) if necessary (be careful, it will not be possible to display it again afterwards).
  11. Save it at the bottom of the page to use it as you wish:
 
 

You clicked on the “Finish” button (above “P”) without noting the password? No problem, modify or generate a new one!

  1. Click on the action menu located to the right of the device just created and click on Modify the password:
  2. Click on the button on the far right of the field to generate a new random password and/or enter the secure characters you wish to use (16 minimum) for the new password, then click on the button to save the modification:
  3. There you go, the password that replaces the old one is displayed permanently, you can enter it on your device(s) in place of the previous one (be careful, it will not be possible to display it again afterwards).

 

Do you need a password for a secondary and temporary user? No problem, generate a second one!

  1. Click on the button to Add an additional new device:
  2. Then choose to not specify a particular user, and enter a name that allows you to identify the reason why you created this device (here the user needs a password for an intern for a week):
  3. There you go, the password is displayed, you can use it for the purpose of your choice (be careful, it will not be possible to display it again afterwards, however, as before, it will of course be possible to modify it or generate a new one):

 

Alternative: create a password for a user

Rather than creating a password yourself and having to communicate it to the user at a later time, you can directly allow a user who does not have as many permissions as you to obtain the password for the device they need:

  1. Add the new user (existing in the Organization or not) as described in this other guide:
  2. Once the user is added, switch to the devices tab to add a new device:
  3. If necessary, enter the login password to your Infomaniak account and then select the user created in step 1.
  4. Click on the first option to send a setup assistant for the user's device.
  5. Click on the Continue button:
  6. Copy the invitation link valid for 30 days to send to the user.
  7. If necessary, send the invitation to the user's email address:

In point 4 above, you can also choose to generate a password:

  • The created password will be displayed, you can modify it one last time, copy it, and keep it safe (password manager, for example); it will no longer be displayed afterward.

 

Modify or remove an existing password

When access is no longer needed, revoke only the password concerned: other accesses to the email address remain active.

This guide presents the security model that allows you to assign users to an email address or to assign them a different password for each device or software that needs to access it.

 

Preamble

  • Forget the times when a single, fragile password protected your mailbox:
    • Previously, changing your password was a hassle: you had to update it on all your devices at the risk of locking yourself out.
    • Now, you can create multiple passwords for the same email address without interrupting existing connections.
    • Each password can be revoked individually, without affecting other users or devices linked to this address.
  • A password is never displayed again after its creation; modify it or create a new one if necessary.
    • If you change your phone, you only modify the access of this mobile device; your other installations remain connected without interruption.
    • In case of loss of a device, you only revoke its specific password without affecting the others.
    • You keep control over who accesses what, without having to reveal your main password.

 

Add a device

This guide explains how to broadcast an online meeting kMeet in a separate stream accessible via a unique URL thanks to Infomaniak Video Streaming.

 

✘ UNAVAILABLE with
kSuite free / kSuite Standard
my kSuite / my kSuite+ (ik.me, etik.com, ikmail.com)


 

Preamble

  • Broadcasting a conference-type meeting in a Video Streaming stream rather than within the kMeet application has several advantages:
    • Large-scale public broadcasting without having to restrict access to an audience limited to invited people.
    • Attract a wider audience, such as conferences, webinars or live events where hundreds or thousands of viewers can follow the event without joining a private call.
    • Allows to reach an unlimited number of viewers.
    • No need to manage access for each participant, the stream is simply viewable via a link.
    • A simple web browser is sufficient to access the streaming stream.
    • Passive access: viewers are not forced to actively participate or interact; they can simply watch the event without registering or logging in, which is better suited for large events.
    • No vocal interruptions or disruptions related to microphone management; this allows for a smoother and more presenter-focused stream.
    • Higher broadcast resolution when kMeet can be limited by bandwidth constraints and lower video quality to avoid network overload.

 

Create the Video Streaming share link

Prerequisites

  • You must be a moderator of kMeet to be able to create a live broadcast link but it is not necessary to have an Infomaniak Video Streaming offer.

Next:

  1. Start kMeet via ksuite.infomaniak.com/kmeet or from one of the applications for computer or mobile devices.
  2. Once in the meeting, click on the action menu ○○○ in the kMeet toolbar.
  3. Choose to Start live streaming:
  4. Click the button to Start:
  5. Wait for the Video Streaming stream to be created:
  6. In the same place, once the stream link is displayed, click on the icon to the right to copy the URL corresponding to the live stream; paste the URL in a message to the participants or to anyone who should attend the live broadcast.
  7. A symbol displayed on kMeet as well as an audible signal indicates the start of the broadcast via Video Streaming:

The stream is broadcast continuously for a maximum of 24 hours, and will no longer be accessible as soon as the kMeet meeting is stopped.

This guide concerns Euria, the sovereign AI assistant, a full-fledged kSuite service, also available within an app.

 

Preamble

  • The use of AI at Infomaniak is based on a transparent and ethical approach.
  • Each AI-integrated service follows strict principles to ensure reliable and respectful use:
    • information protection is guaranteed by complete data processing within infrastructures located exclusively in Switzerland, thus ensuring full control over digital sovereignty,
    • the results generated are never used to train models or for advertising purposes,
    • and AI is not intended to replace humans but to assist them.

 

What is Euria?

Designed to offer a European alternative to American tech giants, the sovereign AI assistant Euria stands out for its deep integration into the Infomaniak productivity ecosystem, while ensuring absolute confidentiality of user data.

Euria's strength lies in its local infrastructure:

  • Unlike solutions based on foreign public cloud, Infomaniak's AI is hosted exclusively on its own servers in Switzerland.
  • This approach ensures strict compliance with data protection standards and guarantees that no processed information is used to train third-party models or shared outside the secure infrastructure of the host.

Euria uses state-of-the-art language models (LLM) selected for their efficiency and performance, while being optimized to minimize their energy footprint. Infomaniak ensures total transparency regarding the algorithms used, adhering to a technological independence and environmental sustainability approach specific to the company.

 

Usage limits

To ensure a smooth and secure experience, the use of Euria is subject to certain volume and file size conditions:

  • Quota calculation (sliding window): the limits (below) are not reset at midnight but calculated in real-time over a 24-hour window; each message sent "occupies" a space in your quota and is automatically released 24 hours after it is sent.
    • If you send messages throughout the morning until you reach your limit at 11 AM, your sending rights will be gradually released the next morning, as each message reaches its 24-hour age.
  • Global message quota: your daily limit is shared; each request sent to Euria is deducted from your global quota, regardless of the project or conversation in which you are interacting.
    • A conversation cannot exceed 254,000 tokens at the moment.
  • Transcriptions: transcription services are unlimited.
  • Image uploads: image uploads are limited to 10 MB per file.
    • A conversation cannot contain more than 20 images.

Some Infomaniak services integrate Euria

  • kChat
    • The AI Euria integrated into kChat saves time in exchanges: it can rephrase sentences, generate quick responses, correct spelling, or adjust the tone of a message. The user retains full control over the suggestions, which are local to each session only.
  • Mail Infomaniak
    • In the Mail application, Euria assists in writing emails. It can generate content from a few keywords, rephrase or structure a message, adapting to different registers. Nothing is sent automatically, and the user can modify the texts at any time.
  • Site Creator
    • An AI-powered writing assistant allows Site Creator to quickly generate content tailored to different types of web pages. This service is useful for people launching a site and looking to produce clear, optimized, and relevant texts.
  • kDrive
    • On kDrive, artificial intelligence is deployed at two complementary levels to simplify document management. Euria allows interaction with text files stored in the drive. This module can answer questions about the content of a document, summarize, translate, or extract useful information. It is particularly effective for reading reports, understanding complex texts, or quickly generating an overview of a file.

To create an AI project with custom instructions and a knowledge base, refer to this other guide.

 

Parties' responsibilities

Data provided to the AI

  • The AI of Infomaniak is currently based by default on these models.
    • Among them, Mistral, Whisper, DeepSeek, Llama, granite…
  • By using a writing assistant, the messages and requests addressed to the AI are exclusively processed in Switzerland by Infomaniak's infrastructure.
  • No data is processed or shared with a third party.

Data provided by the AI

  • The language model generates text based on the data it has assimilated during its training, devoid of consciousness, intentions, or moral responsibilities.
  • It is crucial that the user is aware that the information generated by the model is not always accurate and should not be considered an infallible source of information.
  • The user must exercise critical judgment and verify the information provided by the assistant from reliable sources when necessary.
    • For example, if a person uses the model for critical tasks such as medical, legal, or financial advice, they must take additional precautions to confirm the information from the model.
  • In case of inappropriate or dangerous use of this assistant, the responsibility lies with the user who takes these actions.

 

Discover also AI Services: Infomaniak provides a platform that allows easy integration of open-source models into custom projects. It is possible to leverage text analysis, content generation, translation, or other AI uses via on-demand calls. These services enable developers to benefit from a powerful AI without relying on closed or proprietary solutions.

This guide explains how to manage users of an existing email address.

 

Prerequisites

 

Managing and removing a user

The current model for managing mail access allows each user of an Organization to connect independently and securely to the same email address, without sharing a global password.

In the case of one or more existing users already in the Organization, the added email address can automatically be added to their Infomaniak Mail interface.

If a user should no longer have access to an email address and its content, simply remove them from the interface, but there are 2 possibilities:

  1. Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click directly on the name assigned to the product concerned.
  3. Click on the email address concerned in the table that appears:
  4. On the table of users currently accessing the concerned address, click on the action menu to the right of the concerned user.
  5. Choose whether you want to disconnect all of the user's devices: they will no longer have access to the email address on messaging software/clients but will continue to have access to the address on the Infomaniak app (Web, mobile…).
  6. You can choose to remove all of their access to the address, and they will never be able to access it again.
     

If you know that the user is using messaging software/client (but not listed among the users) you can also revoke a specific device without affecting other accesses/passwords/users.

Also refer if necessary to this other guide to block a complete Mail Service to all users.

This guide explains how to invite a user who is still external to your Organization to kChat but who will be counted as a my kSuite user.

 

Preamble

  • Refer to this other guide to grant access to one or more kChat channels to an external user who can thus interact with your team without being counted as a my kSuite user and without having any special rights in the Organization (of which they will not be a part).
  • You can also invite an entire work team from kChat.
  • Refer to this other guide if you wish to manage the channels to which new members will automatically belong.

 

Invite to use my kSuite

Prerequisites

  •  Be an administrator of the Organization where my kSuite is located with full rights granted for kChat.
     

Once invited, the user can confirm their membership and will access kChat with the limited permissions you have granted them:

  1. Click here to access the management of kChat on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on Add a user:
  3. Click on Create a my kSuite user.
  4. Click on Next:
  5. Enter the user's first and last name, and define their role as a simple user:
    • Legal representative
      • Legal responsibility of the organization
      • Can manage all products and users
      • Can manage accounting and orders for new products
    • Administrator
      • Can manage all products and users
      • Can manage accounting and orders for new products
    • User
      • Can manage the products you authorize
      • Can manage accounting if you authorize it
  6. Do not create an email address for the user and indicate their existing email address to which to send the invitation:
    • You can force this future user to log in with this email address or allow them to specify another email address (useful if they already have a user account with Infomaniak with another login identifier).
    • Add the user to your my kSuite with the toggle switch.
  7. Click on the Invite button:
    • The invitation is pending until the invited user's final registration (see below). The Organization's user dashboard clearly indicates this status:

 

Accept the invitation

To access the Organization holding kChat:

  1. The invited user receives the invitation on their email address and clicks on the Accept the invitation button:
  2. They specify their contact details as well as the email address/password they wish to use and complete the registration:
  3. Once registration is complete, the newly registered user can log in to their Manager and access kChat to which they have been invited.
  4. Existing users are automatically notified of the arrival of the new participant and can now converse with them; as soon as they are added, the new user receives a message from Euria (Infomaniak AI Bot) welcoming them:

 

Access to kSuite, and not access to kSuite management!

It is important to differentiate the use of the kChat app (within kSuite) and the management of kSuite itself.

In the invitation example above, the new user has been invited to join kChat, so they are now counted as a kSuite user when an administrator accesses kChat user management:

The same applies, of course, to kSuite user management:

However, this new user will not be able to directly manage the kSuite to which they have been invited, as their role (defined in the first point 5 above) does not authorize them to do so:

  1. This is why this user will see no active link in the Collaborative Tools → kSuite section of their Infomaniak Manager.
  2. They will need to switch to the Infomaniak applications using the menu at the top right:

Note that if they wish, this user can order their own kSuite with no link to the kSuite to which they have been invited.

This guide explains how to change your kDrive offer, the collaborative storage solution on a 100% Swiss Made cloud.

 

Preamble

  • kDrive is the name given to the file storage/sharing service offered by Infomaniak in Switzerland.
  • kDrive is accessible for free or by subscription depending on whether you are alone using it or if you want collaborators to also access it.
  • kDrive exists as an independent product, or as a product among others within the kSuite & my kSuite / my kSuite+ suite.
    • To help you identify the offer most suited to your needs, refer to this other guide.

 

If you have been invited to view/collaborate on a file from a kDrive, it is possible that you do not actually own the kDrive product; you only have access to the kDrive managed by someone else. You cannot therefore interact with the current offer.

 

Determine the current kDrive offer

From the kDrive Web App

To find out which offer you currently have:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak kDrive Web App (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/kdrive).
  2. Click on Manage to go to the offer change and view the current offer

If no dashboard is accessible at the bottom left, you have limited features (e.g., my kSuite offer) that can be unlocked by upgrading to a higher offer: 

From the Infomaniak Manager

You can also find out about the current offer from the Manager, the dashboard of your products.

If no kDrive product is present in the Manager, the kDrive app is accessible only among the apps at the top right, because you have…

  • either a my kSuite / my kSuite+ offer: 
  • or you have been invited during a document share (you are therefore an external user of kDrive):

Otherwise, find your kDrive among your collaborative tools

 

Change the current kDrive plan

Your kDrive can evolve with you. When your needs expand — whether to welcome new collaborators, integrate a family member, or store a growing volume of data — easily increase its capacity to unlock its full potential.

Prerequisites

  • Have sufficient permissions within the Organization.

To modify your current kDrive offer:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak kDrive Web App (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/kdrive).
  2. Click on Manage to go to the offer change and view the current offer

You can then switch to a higher offer from the Infomaniak Shop:

If, for example, by choosing a new offer, you increase the quota of users that can be added to your kDrive, refer to this other guide to invite them to join you.

This guide for the Web app Mail Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) or the mobile app Infomaniak Mail (application for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet) explains how to activate encryption for emails sent from Infomaniak Web and mobile services.

 

Preamble

  • When encryption is activated, emails and attachments are encrypted as soon as they are received on Infomaniak servers, via the public keys of senders and recipients.
    • Each email address generates a key upon its first use, securely stored in Infomaniak datacenters.
  • The keys are based on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and use the OpenPGP standard.
    • They are themselves encrypted in AES-256-GCM with automatic decryption via Infomaniak authentication.
  • In search results, only the subject of encrypted messages will be visible, while their content will remain secure during storage.

 

Activate email encryption…

 

…from the Infomaniak Web Mail app

To automatically encrypt a message sent to an email address:

  1. Click here to access the Web app Mail Infomaniak (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).

  1. …in the recipient's inbox:
  2. when opening the received message:
  3. ... and in the sender's sent folder:

  2. Compose a new message as usual, but addressed to an email address outside of Infomaniak.
  3. Click on the lock icon to the left of the Send button to enable encryption.

    • Enter a password and copy it to send it by your own means (kPaste for example) to the recipient (you can agree on a password in advance so the recipient is already informed):
  5. The icon now represents a closed lock without an orange chip, and you can send the email as usual:
  6. Recipients will then receive a message notifying them that an encrypted email is waiting for them:
    1. By clicking on the provided button, they will be redirected to a secure web page where the password must be entered.

  2. Press the lock icon.
  3. A modal opens to allow you to create a password.
  4. Leave the suggested password or enter a new password and copy it to send it by your own means (kPaste for example) to the recipient (you can agree on a password in advance so the recipient is already informed).

    • The columns must be clearly named (e.g., "Name", "First Name", "Email").
    • If the titles are missing or incorrect, the system will not be able to read the data.
  • Data format:
    • Check that phone numbers do not contain unusual special characters and that email addresses are spelled correctly (presence of the @ and the dot).
  • File encoding:
    • For optimal results, save your CSV file in UTF-8 format; this ensures that accents and special characters display correctly.

This guide explains how to modify access rights to products for a user in your Organization on the Infomaniak Manager.

 

Preamble

  • Since you opened your account with Infomaniak, you are part of at least one Organization.
    • If you were alone and it was not an invitation, an Organization was created in your name and you automatically become the legal representative.
    • Otherwise, you belong to the Organization that invited you (to join its kSuite, to manage a product, etc.).
  • It is possible to modify a user's role within your Organization.
  • You can then define whether a user…
    • is part of your Organization and should become:
      • Legal representative
      • Administrator
      • Collaborator (this is the part that is detailed below…)
    • is external to your Organization (limited rights):
      • External users are not included in the sharing of calendars and address books for the entire Organization.

 

Who can access what…

Prerequisites

The guide below allows you to manage access to products for collaborators and external users. Indeed, a legal representative or an Administrator already has access to all existing products within the Organization and visible on the Infomaniak Manager.

To modify the product access of an Organization user:

  1. Click here to access user management on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  2. Click on the action menu located to the right of the user concerned.
  3. Click on Modify product access:
  4. You can grant access to everything with maximum permissions in 1 click.
  5. Otherwise, click on the product category to which you want to grant access.
  6. Select the necessary product(s).
  7. If you have selected multiple products, decide whether a future additional product should automatically be visible to the user (and with what type of permissions).
  8. Click the Save button:
  9. Rights are granted immediately.
  10. Click the pencil icon ✎ to modify permissions:
  11. Restart at step 5 if you need to grant access to multiple products.

 

Service usage / Service management

Be careful, on your product table, it is important to distinguish between product access (type kDrive for example, within the kSuite) and product management access:

It is possible to authorize a user to use kDrive (they will be able to create a PDF for example) without granting them kDrive service management rights (they will not be able to change the offer, invite a new user, terminate, etc.).

 

 

Technical rights / Statistical rights

With certain services like kDrive, it is possible to give a collaborator TECHNICAL and/or STATISTICAL rights (adds access to the dashboard, share links, storage statistics, active users, connected devices, activity on kDrive):

Other services like domain names do not have a STATISTICAL section:

Certain specific services like ticketing allow granting even more detailed rights:

 

Easier access: Work Teams

To facilitate the addition of access rights to a product that is on your Organization, there are Work Teams. These allow you to create groups that are linked to Infomaniak products with the desired rights, very practical for giving a new collaborator in your Organization access to the products they will need in their daily activities.

This guide explains how to copy or move contacts to address books in the Infomaniak Web app Contacts (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/contacts).

 

Preamble

 

Copy or move a contact

To do this:

  1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Web app Contacts (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/contacts).

The default behavior when moving a contact card from the address book to another folder or address book is "move".

By pressing the keyboard key that usually allows you to copy files from your computer (the ALT key in principle) by dragging them from one place to another, you can "copy" contacts instead of moving them.
