On the Web self-care panel you can define credentials and preferred settings (such as language, time zone, date input and output formats) for this customer's self-care interface.
Login
The customer self-care interface login.
Access web self-care as a customer. After you defined the credentials, you can log in to the self-care interface on behalf of the customer. Click Login 
to access it in one of the modes:
-
Log in using the assigned role – this mode appears only if you defined a new access role for the customer. You log in to the self-care with the same permissions that the customer currently has. This comes useful if you need to check the customer's access level.
-
Log in using the default role – you can log in to the self-care interface with the default access role even if the customer now has a different role assigned. This may be useful for troubleshooting or if you assist the customer with their configuration.
The administrator can automatically log in to any custom self-care portal with just a single click right from the PortaBilling web interface. There is no need to contact the customer for the portal password or to store it with the portal URL for future use. This saves troubleshooting time and enables the administrator to assist customers faster.
The administrator can see all custom self-care portals that are available for a specific customer role by clicking on the arrow 
of the login button. The administrator can log in either with a customer role or with the full access option.
The administrator can also log in as one of the customer individuals.
To configure access to the custom self-care portals, refer to the Control what custom portal functionality is visible according to user permissions chapter.
Password
The customer self-care interface password. Define it manually or click to generate a random, hard-to-guess password.
To show or hide the password, click
Allow access only from trusted IP addresses
This ensures that the customer accesses the self-care interface only from physical locations that you define. For example, you can specify IP addresses that belong to your network. If the customer tries to log in from outside your network, PortaBilling® denies that access and the customer cannot log in.
Use these formats to permit access from specific IP addresses or networks:
-
A single IP address: 10.10.10.1
-
A network in IP prefix (slash) notation: 192.168.192.0/24
-
An IP address and a netmask: 192.168.192.0/255.255.255.0
You can enter multiple definitions, with one starting on a new line and ending with a semicolon.
API token access
Use API tokens to authenticate customer applications (e.g., CRM systems, switchboard apps) that are integrated with PortaBilling® via the API. The application then uses the combination of the API token and login to establish the API session.
Role
