Enabling a Guest Account

Overview

A Guest Account is an optional user Account that can be used to get non-Portal users, such as an outside vendor, for example, to engage in a Flow. The Guest Account user is enabled under System > Settings > Portal Settings, by checking the Enable Guest Account checkbox found under Portal Settings. When the Guest Account is active, a user will see a GUEST user in the user's list, and Forms will have the "Assign to Guest" option available for doing the Assignment.
To use a Guest Account, it has to be activated, enabled, and then given Portal access.
