Create team accounts


With the Advanced Plan, Donglify allows you to create individual accounts for your team members so they can share USB dongles securely within a select group of people. 


To begin, start a free 7-day trial of the Advanced Plan on the official Donglify website.


As a registered Donglify user, you’ll be able to log in to your online Donglify account and manage your team accounts: add and remove team members, create and delete login tokens for their accounts.


    

Manage team members


An Advanced Plan owner (also known as a team owner) has the ability to create secondary Donglify accounts for team members and provide access to the accounts, generating individual login tokens. 


A team owner can manage team accounts in the online Donglify account. 


To access your online account, enter the email address and password you used when starting your Advanced Plan trial and click Log in. 



Once logged in, you can open the Team accounts tab and start adding team members to your Donglify team:



Note: Each added team member will have their own Donglify account that can be accessed only via the Donglify desktop app with the help of a login token generated specifically for their individual account by the team owner. 


Note: All team members will be able to access their individual accounts under the team owner’s subscription plan allowance. This means they will have access to the number of simultaneous connections included in the owner’s subscription plan. 


Add a team member

To add a new team member, take the following steps:

  1. Click the Add team member button in the Team accounts tab: 

  1. Enter the name for the new team member.

  2. Click Add team member:



The new member will appear in the team members list:




Remove a team member

To remove a team member, take the following steps:

  1. Find the required team member in the list of added team members and click the delete icon under their name:


Note: Once the team member is removed, their login tokens become invalid and can no longer be used to access their individual account.



Log in as a team member


Receive a login token

When a team owner adds a new team member, the first login token for the member’s individual account is generated automatically: 




The team owner can copy the automatically generated login token or add new ones and send one or all of them to the team member via email, SMS, or any messaging app.  


Upon receiving a login token, the team member can use it to log in to their individual account in the Donglify desktop app. 


Note: Team members’ login tokens do not allow logging in to the online account of the team owner. The team owner can log in to their online account on the Donglify website either by using their email address and password or their Google Account. 


Log in using a token

To access their individual Donglify account via the Donglify desktop app, a team member needs to enter the login token they’ve received from the team owner:


And click the Log In button.


Connect to your teammates’ devices


Send invites 

To let your teammates connect to your locally attached USB dongles, you should send an invite. 

In order to send a connection invite to a member of your team, do the following:


Share a dongle to make it available for remote access.  


  • To do this, start Donglify and click the “Plus” icon:


  • In the invoked window, you’ll see the list of your local USB dongles (the ones that are physically connected to your computer):



  • Check the radio button next to the required dongle and click Share.



After you click the Share button, the dongle will become available for remote connection:



Now you can invite your teammates to connect to your dongle. To do this, type the email address or the name of the teammate you’d like to share your USB dongle with and click the “Plus” icon:



or select the teammate from the drop-down list:


Note: To be able to invite a teammate by email address, you should ask your team owner for the teammate’s email address. The team owner can find it under the team member’s name in the online Donglify account and send it to you in any convenient way.


 


When the teammate accepts your invite, you see them connected to your USB dongle:



4. To disconnect the remote team member from your dongle, click the “More options” icon next to the required teammate’s email address and select Disconnect:



Accept invites 

Once you are invited, you can connect to the shared dongle and get full access to its functionality.
