Sending and receiving emails in Unifize

Share updates with people outside Unifize and have their replies captured directly within your conversations.


✨ What this does

Lets you send a message from a Unifize conversation to any email address and receive the response directly inside the same thread—without requiring the recipient to log into Unifize.


✅ When to use it

  • You want to involve someone who’s not on Unifize (e.g., supplier, consultant)

  • You need an external approval or update tied to a record

  • You want full traceability of external communications inside your workflows


🔄 How it works

To send an email:

  1. Open any conversation

  2. Click + Add participant

  3. Type the recipient’s email address

  4. Press Enter and assign a role (usually Viewer)

  5. Type your message and click Send

📤 The recipient gets a regular email with your message and a link to respond.


To receive replies:

  • The external user replies to the email

  • Their response is added directly to the Unifize conversation

  • Everyone in the thread sees the reply, just like any internal message


⚠️ Things to keep in mind

  • You can only send emails to one recipient at a time

  • Email replies are not private—they appear in the group thread

  • External participants can’t log into Unifize unless invited

  • You can remove email participants from the thread at any time


🧠 Pro tips

  • Keep your messages focused—external users see the whole conversation

  • Use this for one-off updates, document reviews, or supplier clarifications

  • Great for auditors or stakeholders who just need visibility on a few records
