2. Launch the Xink app now found in the Application folder and if you receive the following warnings below, enter your computer password and select Always Allow.

If it persists in asking for a login keychain password, refer to this Apple guide - https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201609.

3. Enter the access code from the invitation email.
This access code is unique for each employee and is used to receive signature updates from the Xink portal.

Click OK if you see this screen.

Notice the Xink icon in the menu bar with the Green checkmark means that the Xink user is now online and updated.



4. Assign Xink Signature to the mailbox as default or reply/forward signature.
Go to Outlook > Preferences > Signatures and set the default or reply/forward signature for each email address or mailbox.


The 'Preferences' menu is disabled when the Xink add-in is deployed with a domain token. You can delete the domain token and use an activation code instead.
