Introduction
- The call function in kChat is available on all Web (browser), mobile (iOS/Android) and computer (macOS/Windows) versions.
Start a meeting between kChat users
To be able to discuss within a virtual room with the microphone and webcam of your device, simply press the Call button visible on any kChat conversation, private or public channel, via the application or directly on the browser:
- Call a user directly if you are in a direct discussion with them, or initiate a call to all members of a channel if you start the meeting from the channel.
- Calling a user who is set to "Do Not Disturb" will not trigger a ringtone or call modal for them, but they will see the message in the conversation.
- The microphone is enabled by default when the call is accepted, but not the camera.
- View the users of the meeting (who accepted, declined, or missed it) using the avatars in the kChat message.
- Once the call has started, an emoji appears in your kChat status to indicate that you are busy with the conversation.
- A message sent from the video (kMeet) will also be visible in the kChat conversation (and vice versa).
- Indications regarding the start and end of the meeting automatically appear in the relevant kChat conversation thread.
Specifics for calls in channels
- The call will not ring for the recipients, but they will see a message in kChat as well as a notification.
- A warning message will appear if you want to start a call in a channel with more than 7 users.

This guide concerns the Infomaniak service chk.me, a platform available with kSuite, designed to simplify the creation and sharing of short links and QR codes.
Preamble
- Chk.me is particularly useful for marketing professionals, event organizers, or anyone looking to effectively disseminate information through simplified links.
- This service not only shortens URLs to make them more manageable but also offers the possibility to generate associated QR codes, thus facilitating access to websites, promotions, or online documents from physical media.
- To use Infomaniak Chk, creating an Infomaniak account is essential.
Shortened links and QR codes
Here are the limits on the number of new items created per month, depending on the kSuite version subscribed to:
kSuite Standard 1 max user = 20‍ | kSuite Standard 2 min users = 20‍ | kSuite Pro = 100‍ | kSuite Enterprise = 500‍
Regardless of the subscription, the validity period of a created link can be set between 7 days, 30 days, 6 months, 1 year, and indefinitely.
This guide explains how to modify product access rights for a user in your Organization on the Manager Infomaniak.
Preamble

- If you were alone and it was not an invitation, an Organization was created in your name and you automatically become the legal representative.
- Otherwise, you belong to the Organization that invited you (to join its kSuite, to manage a product, etc.).
- It is possible to modify a user's role within your Organization.
- You can define whether a user…
- … is part of your Organization and should become:
- Legal representative
- Administrator
- Collaborator
- … is external to your Organization (limited rights):
- External users are not included in the sharing of calendars and address books with the entire Organization.
- … is part of your Organization and should become:
Who can access what…
Prerequisites
- To be Administrator or Legal Representative‍ within the Organization.
- To have added a user as a collaborator.

To modify a user's product access in the Organization:
- Click here to access user management on the Manager Infomaniak (need help?).
- Click on the action menu â‹® located to the right of the user in question.
- Click on Edit product access:
- Expand the tabs/accordions by product if necessary.

- Select the necessary product(s).
- If you have selected multiple products, decide whether a future additional product should automatically be visible to the user.
- Click on the Save button:
- Start again at step 5 if you need to grant access to multiple products.
Note, on your product table, it is important to distinguish product access (such as kDrive for example, within the kSuite) and product management access.It is possible to authorize a user to use kDrive (they will be able to create a PDF for example) without necessarily granting them management rights for the kDrive service (they will not be able to change the offer, invite a new user, cancel, etc.).
Easier access: Work Teams
To facilitate the addition of access rights to a product within your Organization, there are Work Teams. These allow you to create groups linked to Infomaniak products with the desired rights, very practical for giving a new collaborator in your Organization access to the products they will need in their daily activities.
