3. Select the level of security that you want for sharing documents with contacts:
Magic link only, no 2FA: Share documents by sending a contact a link to the Semble sharing portal
SMS 2FA for contacts with a mobile phone, magic link for those without: Contacts with a phone number linked to their record will have to use two factor authentication (2FA) to access shared documents. You can still share documents to contacts without a phone number, by sending them a link to the Semble sharing portal
SMS 2FA only, disable sharing for contacts without a mobile phone: You can only share documents with contacts who have a phone number linked to their record, and they must use 2FA
Note: Selecting an option that uses SMS 2FA will cost your clinic for every text message sent.
4. Select the level of security that you want for sharing documents with patients:
Date of birth 2FA for all patients: Any patient can access their shared documents by entering their date of birth into the Semble sharing portal
SMS 2FA for patients with a mobile phone, DOB for those without: Patients who have a mobile number linked to their record must use two factor authentication (2FA) to access their shared documents. Patients without a phone number can still access their shared documents with just their date of birth
SMS 2FA only, disable sharing for patients without a mobile phone: Only patients who have a mobile number linked to their record can access shared documents, and they must use 2FA
Note: Selecting an option that uses SMS 2FA will cost your clinic for every text message sent.
