Mail server credentials
This page allows an outgoing (SMTP) server to connect to the instance. This will enable the following:
- automatically sending invitation letters to new users
- resetting passwords for existing users
- sending notifications through business processes
Admin needs to fill in the following mail server credentials to allow mail notifications:
| Item | Description | UI |
|---|---|---|
| Server | required field; allows you to add SMTP server path | input filed |
| Port | required field; allows you to add a port number of SMTP server | input filed |
| Encryption | allows you to set encryption type; acceptable types are TLS and SSL | drop-down list |
| Username | required field; allows you to add a username for SMTP server account | input filed |
| Password | required field; allows you to add a password for SMTP server account | input filed |
After the "Save" button is pressed, the input credentials are verified. Once the verification is complete, a pop-up notification will indicate whether the process was successful or failed.
