Access Granted To Gainsight Support Option

Hi Rich,
This permits Gainsight Support to log into your Salesforce instance as you, since you've installed a Package that they manage.

In Salesforce, you:

1. Click your name at the top
2. Click "My Settings"
3. Click "Personal" on the left side
4. Click "Grant Account Login Access"
5. Select an "Access Duration" for "Gainsight Support", which will be listed on that page
6. Click "Save" at the bottom of the page

If I understand Rich's question correctly, I think he is asking if checking this box actually performs the action of granting access (I don't think it does) or if this is just a yes/no toggle to inform Gainsight that we have already granted access to them (which is all I think it does).

That process Seth points out is the process you would go through to allow Gainsight to log in as your user (we don't permit that in our org) but I believe you would perform those steps and [i]then check the Access Granted to Gainsight Support box in the ticket to let Gainsight know they have permission to log in.

Jeff = Totally correct.

If I were them, I would ask the question in the ticket request form to essentially reinforce, "Why don't you take this step now so that we can all get to the solution faster."

Agreed!!

That field is just to let the support reps know whether or not you have granted them support access via LMA. The process to actually provide access is what Seth has explained above.

Ok, this all makes sense now. I'm new to Salesforce, so I wasn't aware we had the ability to grant access without a dedicated support account.
