Configure Sign In Settings for Frontline Worker

The Appspace platform has been improved to allow access to Frontline Workers, employees whom do not typically perform their duties at a desk, or employees that do not have access to an organization email account, such as delivery drivers, retail store personnel, manufacturing shop workers, custodial staff, etc.

This article provides instructions to configure the sign-in method for Frontline Workers to access the Appspace Employee App portal.

Prerequisites

• An Account Owner role with a Platform User license.
• Sufficient Premium User licenses for User invitations (Frontline Workers / Employees).
• The Frontline Worker feature is available and configured on your Appspace cloud instance.
