Login & Account

The Customer Portal is accessed through a web browser. Most users arrive here for the first time by clicking the magic link in the welcome email their administrator sent them — no password required.

Portal Login

First-Time Access: Welcome Email

When your administrator provisions your extension, you receive a welcome email that contains:

You do not receive a password in the welcome email. If your magic link has expired, click Sign in with email on the login screen to have a fresh one sent to you, or ask your administrator to re-send the welcome email.

Signing In (Subsequent Visits)

The portal supports three sign-in methods. Pick whichever is easiest for the way you work:

Sign in with a passkey

  1. Open the portal URL in your browser. If you’ve enrolled a passkey on this device, the password form is collapsed behind a Sign in with a password instead link; if not, the password form is shown and the Sign in with a passkey button appears below it.
  2. Click Sign in with a passkey
  3. Confirm with Touch ID / Face ID / PIN / security key
  4. You land on your portal dashboard

Sign in with a password

  1. Open the portal URL in your web browser
  2. Enter your email address — the same email your administrator set on your extension (voice users) or the email on your CRM account (client users)
  3. Enter your password
  4. Click Sign In

If you haven’t set a password yet, use Sign in with email to get a fresh magic link delivered to your email. This is the fastest path if you’ve lost your password too.

Enrolling a Passkey

  1. Sign in using your password or magic link
  2. Click your avatar in the top right, then Profile
  3. Open Security
  4. (Optional) Label the new passkey, e.g. “iPhone” or “Work MacBook”
  5. Click Add a passkey for this device and confirm with Touch ID / Face ID / Windows Hello / security key
  6. Your next visit to the login page will offer Sign in with a passkey as the primary option

You can enroll up to 10 passkeys across different devices and password managers. A passkey in a cloud-synced manager (iCloud, Google, 1Password) works on every device signed into that account — recommended so a lost or replaced device doesn’t lock you out. Revoke a passkey any time from the same Security page.

Dev vs. production: passkeys are tied to the specific portal hostname they were enrolled on. A passkey enrolled on a staging/dev portal will not work on production and vice versa; enroll separately on each environment you use.

Passkeys inside the Chrome installed app (PWA)

The portal can be installed as a Chrome desktop app on Windows and macOS. The installed app window cannot read the operating system’s passkey store directly (Windows Hello, iCloud Keychain, etc.) — this is a Chrome platform limitation that Cloudspire does not control. A passkey you enrolled in the regular Chrome browser will not appear when you click Sign in with a passkey inside the installed app.

If you want to use a passkey from inside the installed app, you have two options:

If you prefer to sign in with the local Windows Hello / Touch ID passkey, sign in from a regular Chrome browser tab rather than the installed app.

Session Duration

Your session remains active for 4 hours with a sliding window — each interaction resets the timer. After 4 hours of inactivity, you will be returned to the login screen and need to sign in again.

Rate Limiting

For security, the portal limits login attempts. After 5 failed attempts (password or passkey combined), you must wait 15 minutes before trying again. Magic-link sign-ins bypass this counter.

Recovery if you lose a passkey device

If you lose all devices that hold a passkey, sign in with your password or request a magic link — both remain available. Revoke the lost device’s passkey from Profile → Security on the new device. If you’ve also forgotten your password, ask your administrator to reset it.

Setting a Password (Optional)

Some users prefer the classic username/password sign-in. Once you’re logged in via a magic link, set a password at any time:

  1. Go to the Settings tab (or Profile in the user dropdown)
  2. Scroll to the Change Password section
  3. Enter and confirm your new password
  4. Click Change Password

Once a password is set, the same password works across both the voice portal and the CRM portal (for users with access to both).

Forgot Password

The simplest recovery path is Sign in with email on the login screen — enter your email address, and we’ll email you a fresh magic link. Signing in that way logs you in without a password; you can then set a new password under Settings if you want one.

If you do not have an email address configured on your extension, contact your system administrator.

Password Requirements

Passwords must be at least 8 characters long. For best security, use a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

Changing Your Password

To change your password after logging in:

  1. Go to the Settings tab
  2. Scroll to the Change Password section
  3. Enter your current password
  4. Enter and confirm your new password
  5. Click Change Password

You will remain logged in after changing your password.

Signing Out

To sign out, click the sign-out icon in the top-right corner of the navigation bar. On mobile, open the menu and tap Sign Out.

Tour of the Portal

Once you're signed in, this short tour walks through the main dashboard — navigation tabs, the softphone, quick actions, recent calls, and the team sidebar — so you know where everything lives.

Theme

The portal supports dark, light, and system (auto-detect) themes. Click the half-circle icon in the navigation bar to cycle through theme options. Your preference is saved in your browser and persists across sessions.
