Support Access gives agencies a secure way to temporarily allow GHL Customer Care team members to access an account for troubleshooting. Access is controlled from inside GHL Customer Care, can be limited by expiration date, and can be extended or revoked at any time. This helps agencies get support while maintaining stronger visibility and control over account access.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What is Support Access?

Support Access is a temporary access control setting that allows GHL Customer Care team members to access your account for support and troubleshooting purposes. This setting helps ensure access is explicitly approved by the agency, limited to a defined time period, and managed directly from Company Settings.

Support Access is useful when you are actively working with GHL Customer Care support and need the team to investigate an issue inside your account. Once access is no longer needed, you can revoke it immediately or allow it to expire automatically.

Key Benefits of Support Access

Support Access helps agencies balance fast troubleshooting with stronger account security. By making access temporary and user-controlled, agencies can decide when GHL Customer Care support can access the account and when that access should end.

  • User-Approved Access: GHL Customer Care team access must be enabled from inside the agency account.

  • Time-Limited Control: Set an expiration date so access does not remain open indefinitely.

  • Flexible Troubleshooting: Extend access when a support case requires more time.

  • Immediate Revocation: Revoke support access at any time when troubleshooting is complete.

  • Improved Transparency: View when support access is active and when it is scheduled to expire.

  • Compliance Support: Use a controlled access process that supports internal security and data access requirements.

Where to Find Support Access

Support Access is located in Company Settings under Advanced Settings. This placement keeps support access controls close to other agency-level security and account configuration settings.

To find Support Access:

  1. Go to Agency View in GHL Customer Care.

  2. Click Settings.

  3. Select Company.

  4. Open the Advanced Settings tab.

  5. Scroll to the Support Access section.

The Support Access section shows whether access is currently enabled and, when active, displays the date support access is available until.

When to Enable Support Access

Support Access should be enabled when you are actively working with GHL Customer Care support and temporary account access is needed to investigate or resolve an issue. Keeping support access limited to active troubleshooting helps reduce unnecessary access exposure.

Common use cases include:

  • Investigating account configuration issues

  • Troubleshooting unexpected product behavior

  • Reviewing settings related to a reported support case

  • Helping support verify an issue directly inside the account

Support Access is separate from regular user access. Agency users, team members, roles, and permissions are managed separately through user access and role settings.

Support Access Duration

Support Access is designed to be time-bound, which means it remains active only until the selected expiration date. This prevents support access from staying enabled longer than needed.

When Support Access is active, GHL Customer Care displays a message showing the date through which access remains available. If more troubleshooting time is needed, you can extend access by choosing a later expiration date. If access is no longer needed, you can revoke it immediately.

Extending Support Access

Extending support access gives GHL Customer Care support more time to continue troubleshooting without requiring you to disable and re-enable access. This is useful when an issue is still being investigated or when a support case needs additional review.

To extend support access:

  1. Go to Agency View → Settings → Company → Advanced Settings.

  2. Scroll to Support Access.

  3. Click Extend access.

  4. Choose the new expiration date in the Access expires on field.

  5. Review the confirmation message showing when support access will remain active until.

  6. Click Save.

Security and Auditability

Support Access is designed to give agencies clearer control over support-related account access. Because access is approved from inside the account and limited by expiration date, agencies can better align support troubleshooting with internal security and compliance expectations.

Support Access helps support:

  • Explicit approval before GHL Customer Care team access

  • Time-limited access windows

  • Clear visibility into active access status

  • Better control over extension and revocation

  • More transparent access management for troubleshooting

For broader account activity review, use GHL Customer Care audit log resources where available.
