Getting started with your Loksi vault

When the vault is delivered, you receive an email titled « Invitation à rejoindre » followed by your company name. The vault's emails are in French. It comes from loksi@aleop.eu. Nobody reads this address, so do not reply to it.

The link in the email lets you create your account and choose your master password. This password encrypts the vault.

Your vault is delivered empty, with no organization. The organization is what lets you share passwords with your team.

In the web vault, click New organization. Give it your company name: it will appear in the invitations sent to your colleagues.

The only plan offered is Free. This is expected. The number of members depends on your Loksi tier, not on this plan.

Shared passwords are stored in collections, for example one per department or per customer. Each member only sees the collections they have access to.

First export your passwords from the old tool. Every browser has an export function in its password settings, in CSV format. Other password managers export to CSV or JSON.

In Loksi, open Tools, then Import data. Choose the destination:

• My vault for your personal logins. Each colleague imports their own the same way.
• the organization and a collection for what is shared. Only an owner or an admin of the organization can do this.

Select the File format of the old tool, upload the file and start the import.

Open the organization's Admin Console, then Members and Invite member. Enter your colleague's email and their Member role. User is enough in most cases. In the Collections tab, tick the ones they need, then Save.

Your colleague receives an invitation email. They create their account and their own master password.

One more step is often forgotten. When their status changes to Accepted, go back to Members and confirm them. Compare the fingerprint phrase shown with the one they read in Settings, My account. Until they are confirmed, they see no shared item.

Emergency access is the only way back if someone loses their master password or leaves the company without notice. Each user sets it up for their own account. Start with yours.

In Settings, open Emergency access and add a trusted contact. This person needs an account on the same vault. Choose their access level:

• View: they will be able to read your personal items.
• Takeover: they will be able to replace your master password.

Set the Wait time. The contact accepts by email, then you confirm them on the same screen.

When they request access, you receive an email. You can approve or reject. If you do not answer, access opens at the end of the wait time.

The logo is included, at no extra cost, from the Loksi M tier.

Your logo is shown above the sign-in form, in the place framed below. It also appears at the bottom of the side menu once you are signed in. We need two versions, in PNG:

• one for a light background: the sign-in page when the vault uses the light theme;
• one for a dark background: the sign-in page in the dark theme, and the bottom of the side menu, which is dark in both themes.

Transparent background, 320 × 135 pixels if possible, 300 KB at most. If you only have one version, send it: we build the other one by inverting its brightness.

Send the files to support@aleop.eu with the address of your vault. The vault restarts for a few seconds to load the logo. If it is already in use, tell us when to do it.

The example below is Aleop's own vault, in the dark theme. Your logo takes the place of Aleop's.
