Admin Console - Settings
The Settings section of the Admin console allows an administrator of a PreVeil organization to configure a few settings that will apply to the organization as a whole.
To access the Settings:
Click the Admin Console icon in the upper right hand corner of the PreVeil browser application, and then select Approval Group from the menu.
Here are the settings you can configure:
User Onboarding
By default, when a user is invited to join your PreVeil organization, the invitation email will include a link to download and install PreVeil. If you wish to remove that link you can turn this toggle off.
Scenarios where you might want to consider removing this link are:
If you will be inviting users who do not have the correct level of administrative privileges on their computer to do their own software installations.
If the software installation package will be pushed out remotely to your users.
Invitation email with User Onboarding setting enabled:
Invitation email with User Onboarding setting disabled:

User Device Management
By default, users within your organization have the ability to add their PreVeil account on additional devices (phones, tablets, additional computers).
PreVeil does not limit how many additional devices a user can add their account to.
If you would like to restrict this ability for users in your organization, you can turn this toggle off.
If the toggle is turned off, the Add Device option will still be available under a user’s Settings.
However, if a user’s tries to add a device, they will receive an error message.
Even with User Device Management disabled, organization administrators have the ability to make exceptions to allow individual users to add devices. To do so, go to the Users section of the Admin Console, select the user you want to make the exception for, click on the Devices tab of their profile, and turn on the toggle to allow them to add devices.
Note: Organization users will also be unable to recover their account by using a recovery code file when the User Device Management toggle is turned off.
Mail Client Prompt
With this toggle turned on, users within your organization have the ability to integrate their PreVeil mail with an external email client like Outlook, Gmail, or Apple Mail. An administrator can disable this ability by turning this toggle on, which would then make it so that users in the organization can only use the PreVeil browser application to access their PreVeil mail.
With the Mail Client Prompt toggle turned on, the Add to Mail Client option will be present in the user Settings menu options:
With the Mail Client Prompt toggle turned off, the Add to Mail Client option will be removed from the user Settings menu options:

Drive Sync Default Setting
Note: This functionality is available on PreVeil version 4.11.0 and higher.
When a user within your organization shares a folder from their Drive, the default setting is for the recipient of that folder share to accept it with the folder synced locally to their computer if they have a full PreVeil account.
Turning this toggle off will then entail that the default setting for the recipient to accept a folder share request will be with the folder not syncing locally, and only being available for them to access in the PreVeil browser app.
Export Device List
This option allows an administrator to download a CSV file that list all the devices that all the users in the organization have access to the PreVeil accounts on.
This allows an administrator to audit all the access points within their organization in one place.
Clicking on the Export button will create a CSV file that will provide information about these access points.
