One-time passcodes for external users

Note

This feature is available only in Hyperproof Gov.

One-time passcodes provided via email are a simple way to provide authenticated access to Hyperproof for external users who are assigned work, such as tasks, questionnaires, or surveys.

When a task is assigned to a contact, a questionnaire is sent to a vendor, or a survey is sent to a contact, Hyperproof emails the assignee to notify them. Each email contains a link to the specific task, questionnaire, or survey. When the assignee clicks the link in the email, Hyperproof opens a login page and emails the assignee a second message containing a one-time passcode.

Logging in using a one-time passcode

Note

If you are an Admin user testing this process, be sure to log out of Hyperproof before attempting to log in using the one-time passcode process.

If you are a vendor or a contact and are already logged in to Hyperproof, you don't have to log in again. Hyperproof takes you to the task, questionnaire, or survey referenced in the email.

A Hyperproof user has assigned you a task or sent you a vendor questionnaire or survey. You'll receive an email from Hyperproof notifying you.

  1. Open the email notifying you that you have work to do for Hyperproof.

    • For a task assignment, click the View in Hyperproof button.

    • For a vendor questionnaire, click the Launch questionnaire button.

    • For a survey, click the Launch survey button.

    The Hyperproof login window displays.
