Creating a Safe

In order to create a new Safe, follow the instruction:

The user sends requests via the Access Gateway and the administrators accept or reject them on the Admin Panel. Read more about the Just-In-Time feature on the Access requests topic.

The Web Client option can’t be enabled when the OTP in Access Gateway option is disabled.
