Secure Link Email

Secure Link Email

Redbrick has the ability to securely email documents via a secure link. An email will be sent to the user with a link to a secure portal for them to access the document. The receiver will also be able to send messages and documents securely back to you. 

 

If you want to send documents more securely to Other Parties or clients but are not a user of the Redbrick Portal, there is a a different option available to you. Instead of emailing the document directly to the Other Party or Client, it can be uploaded to a secure portal that only the receiver will be able to access. Messages and Documents can still be sent and received securely by the Client when they access the secure Redbrick portal. 

 

In order to start this process, first an email address needs to be set against the client in Redbrick. 

 

On the New Document you will see two options Email (Secure Link) and Email as PDF (Secure Link) to enable you to send the Documents securely to the Client.

Notes
It is as this point, in Redbrick, that the document is uploaded, so if you were to change the email address you're sending it to in outlook, that email would not be able to access the document. The email must be correct in Redbrick.

When a client has shared a message or a document back to you, you will see an Incoming Document notification in the bottom right hand corner of Redbrick. 

 

 

 

 

If the Client has sent a message and no document, then in the Document column of the Notification window it will show ‘Inbound Secure Message’.
