Shared password

Shared password lets visitors access your locked help center with one password. Visitors who sign in with the shared password have no individual identity, so user-group restrictions do not apply to them.

Steps

1

Open Access Control

Go to Help Center, then under Manage, click Access Control.

2

Enable Shared password

Make sure your help center is set to Locked mode. In the Visitor sign-in section, expand Shared password, enter a password, then click Enable password.

3

Disable Shared password

Expand the Shared password row, click Disable, then confirm in the dialog.

Disabling prevents new sign-ins. Existing sessions remain active until they expire.
