Managing Organizations via the Admin Panel¶

Important

To use RG Email Sidebar Admin panel, special access permissions are required. To request the permissions for your organization, contact Revenue Grid support team by email. Please note that Admin panel access is only granted to Enterprise customers: the Panel provides tools for managing a big number of end users and some of its key settings it includes duplicate RG Email Sidebar Customization and Sync settings on Admin level

In RG Email Sidebar Administration Panel context, an Organization is a group of Users with shared basic settings which cooperate in a shared Salesforce space.

The Organizations tab of Administration Panel provides mechanisms for defining synchronization configuration for an Organization.

Note

In the current implementation there is no way to limit the access rights for Admin Users, so an assigned Admin User can manage users in all Organizations locally

Organizations List View¶

On the Organizations tab, you can see the following columns:

ID (this column is hidden by default)
Name
Mailbox Access Type
Synchronization Status
Actions

A filter by each column can be applied to the list. To do that, click the Expand more icon next to a column name and select the action you need:

	Enable Synchronization. Enable synchronization for a User.
	Disable Synchronization. Suspend synchronization for the user. If the synchronization is suspended for an ordinary User, it can be resumed from the User Dashboard.
	Force Synchronization. Standard synchronization interval is set to 30 minutes. The user can manually trigger synchronization outside of the standard sync schedule by selecting the Force Synchronization action, but no sooner than 1 minute after the last attempt to trigger a sync. This is done to avoid service overload in case of multiple consecutive “Force sync” requests.
	Reset Mailbox. Request RG Email Sidebar to remove user customization and keep synchronization disabled. Once synchronization is enabled again, the first synchronization attempt will apply customization to the user’s mailbox.
	Check User's Exchange Impersonated Access. Appears if Exchange Impersonation is set up for a user; initiates a check of impersonated mailbox access.

As new mailbox compatibilities and deployment scenarios are implemented, more options are added to available Mailbox Access Type options:

Microsoft Exchange basic authorization (EWS API) - End User logon
Microsoft Exchange basic authorization (EWS API) - Impersonated logon
Microsoft 365 OAuth (EWS API) - End User logon
Microsoft 365 OAuth (Graph API) - End User logon
Microsoft 365 OAuth (EWS API) - Impersonated logon
Microsoft 365 OAuth (Graph API) - Impersonated logon

Microsoft Exchange basic authorization (EWS API) - End User logon¶

The typical scenario where the end users enter their Exchange logon credentials in RGES Sidebar to activate the Sync engine.

Microsoft Exchange basic authorization (EWS API) - Impersonated logon¶

Microsoft Exchange Impersonation is used to mass-authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with MS Exchange mail accounts via an impersonating service account. Before setting the this access type, you must obtain the Exchange EWS URL and a configured Impersonating account‘s login and password. See this article for detailed steps how to configure everything for this access type.

Microsoft 365 OAuth (EWS API) - End User logon¶

This option is used to authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Office 365 mail accounts over Office 365 OAuth. See this article for more information. In the latest product updates it is the default option for bulk O365 users authorization using a Service account.

Microsoft 365 OAuth (Graph API) - End User logon¶

This option is used to authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Office 365 mail accounts over MS Graph. See this article for more information. Also see this article to learn about limitations presently associated with this connection type.

Microsoft 365 OAuth (EWS API) - Impersonated logon¶

This option is used to mass-authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Office 365 mail accounts via an impersonating account. To use this access type, you must have mail server and RG Email Sidebar Admin account credentials. See this article for detailed steps how to configure everything for this access type.

Microsoft 365 OAuth (Graph API) - Impersonated logon¶

This option is used to mass-authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Office 365 mail accounts via impersonation implemented with MS Graph API. To use this access type, you must have mail server and RG Email Sidebar Admin account credentials. See this article for detailed steps how to configure everything for this access type. Also see this article to learn about limitations presently associated with this connection type.

Google Direct Logon¶

This option is used to authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Gmail / Google Workspace accounts over Gmail OAuth. The users will need to authorize it individually. See this article for more information.

Google Service Account¶

This option is used to mass-authorize in RG Email Sidebar end users with Gmail / Google Workspace accounts. See this article for more information.

Revenue Grid Compatibility¶

Presently, due to data access authorization specifics, only connection types MS Exchange Direct Logon, Office 365 OAuth, Google Service Account (partial), and Google Direct Logon are supported by the full Revenue Grid solution. Via a custom workaround Revenue Grid is also compatible with MS Graph; in this scenario, Revenue Grid is configured to run over EWS tokens and Revenue Grid works over MS Graph.

Deleting Organizations¶

Please note that you can delete an Organization only if it has no users with initialized Exchange Storage. If at least one user is initialized, you must delete the user first, and then the Organization. After you delete an Organization, all users that belong to it will be irrecoverably deleted.
Also note that you cannot delete a default Organization.

To delete an existing organization:

1. Go to the Organizations tab

2. From the list of organizations, select the organization you want to delete, and then click the Delete icon

3. In the confirmation message that appears, click Delete
