Access to any devices that are controlled via the 2Smart Cloud application is easy to share with other users. You can grant access to an unlimited number of users.
There are two ways to share access: via another user’s email or a link.
Sharing a device via email
- In the 2Smart Cloud mobile app, open the “Settings” screen and select “Sharing”.
- Click the “Share access” button.
- In the menu that appears, select “By email”.
- Select one or more devices you want to share access to and click “Select user”.
- Enter the person’s 2Smart Cloud mobile app registration email address.
Note! If the email specified at this step is not registered in the system, an invitation to download the mobile app and register will be sent to it. After that, all devices that you share will appear in the new user’s account.
If you need to grant access for a certain period, enable the “Temporary access” mode and set the period.
After completing all the settings, click “Send access”.
- If the user with this email has registered in 2Smart Cloud, you will receive a notification that the invitation was successfully sent.
- The user who has been granted access will receive a notification in the mobile app. The devices will automatically appear on the “Accepted” tab of the ”Devices” screen.
Managing granted access
- In the 2Smart Cloud mobile app, open the “Settings” screen and select “Sharing”.
- On the “Granted” tab, click on the name of the access you want to change or completely remove.
- Change the settings for the list of devices to which this user has access. Uncheck the box next to the device you want to revoke access to. Check the box if you want to grant access to a new device.

Sharing a device via a link
- In the 2Smart Cloud mobile app, open the Settings screen and select “Sharing”.
- Click the “Share Access” button.
- In the menu that appears, select “Generate link”.
- Select the device you want to share access to and click Next.

- Come up with a name for the link — this is done only for your convenience.
If you need to grant access for a certain period, enable the “Temporary Access” mode and configure the period.
After completing all the settings, click “Save access”. - The link will be automatically copied to the clipboard — send it to the recipient via SMS, instant messenger, or another convenient way.
- You can always copy the link later — simply open the “By link” tab in the sharing menu, click the icon to the right of the desired link, and then select “Copy link” from the menu that appears.
You can also select the “Share link” option and send it using one of the applications installed on your mobile device.
After opening the link, the recipient will see the emulator of the 2Smart Cloud mobile application in their browser. The device will instantly respond to all commands from the emulator — just like when using a mobile application.
