Required permissions
Create a guest user

If you want to send or receive documents from someone in your organization who doesn't have an Aconex account, you can set them up as a guest user in Aconex. If you need to create a guest user account for someone who works in another organization then see Creating a guest user in another organization.

See this article to find out more about what guest users can, and can't do.

Tip!

Note that guest users are visible by default in the global directory and cannot be hidden.

  1. Click on Setup.
  2. Select Create Guest.
  1. Enter the guest user's:
    • first name
    • last name, and
    • their email address.
  1. Click Save.
  2. Now send the guest user a project mail. Make sure you send it from the project you need to add them to.
    This adds the guest user onto your project directory.
