You can add contacts to your vault without giving them collaborator access. This allows you to connect them to files, share documents via encrypted links, or send them a file upload request link. If you want to give them access, the system will prompt you to define permissions after the contact is created.

Add a contact manually

Step 1: Click the plus button and select add contact

• The plus button is always located in the top-right corner.
• You can also right-click any white space in the center area to open the Plus menu Actions.

Step 2: Populate the fields

• The mandatory information is First Name, Last Name and Email. 
• We strongly suggest adding the 'Contact Type'. 
• Click the + next to 'Add More Details'.
• You can add an image to the contact by clicking on "Add Image".

Step 3: Click Create
