Vitrium’s User Portal allows you to distribute your protected content to users in a central, secure web portal. The user can log into one place and access all their content, including any protected documents, images or videos that you have assigned to that particular user. The portal can be customized with your logo and branding colors.

Setting up the User Portal

Go to Settings > Portal Settings, then click the ‘Enabled’ checkbox.

Once you checked the 'Enabled', the portal fields will appear below.

Active Portal Alias

This is the URL that your users will log into to access all the protected content they have access to. You can customize the URL in the next field: Requested Portal Alias. Until your portal alias is approved (see next field below), you will see a temporary portal alias after you click Save Settings. 

Requested Portal Alias

This is the personalized name you can add to the end of the portal alias that the Vitrium application will create for you. The URL will look like this:

https://view.protectedpdf.com/portal/your-alias-name

We recommend you enter a company name or something unique to your organization. If you enter something generic like “test”, the name will be rejected.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your Portal Alias will be activated once Vitrium approves the name and you receive the approval email. Until then, the system will issue you a temporary URL.

Steps to Setup your Portal Alias:

1. Enter your personalized name in Requested Portal Alias field which will appear at the end of URL. Do not use space, long names or general names like test, otherwise it won't be approved.
   

    

2.  Hit 'Save Setting' button at the top.
3. You will get a temporary portal alias until Vitrium approves it and send you a approval email.
