editConfigure a mail service for user invitations
editSupported authentication mode: standard only. Read more about authentication strategies in the Users and access.
To send user invitations and password resets from Workplace Search when using standard authentication, you must configure an SMTP mailer along with your deployment.
Mailer configuration is found in the config/enterprise-search.yml
file.
Local Mail Service SMTP Server Configuration
editWhen using Postfix or a similar service, the mailer configuration follows this template:
email.account: enabled: true smtp: auth: plain # Can be plain, login, or CRAM-MD5. starttls.enable: false # Whether emails are sent encapsulated in TLS, or not. host: 127.0.0.1 port: 25 user: mail@example.com password: secure-pass-phrase email_defaults: from: noreply@example.com # The 'from' address is the address from which emails are sent.

email.account: enabled: true smtp: auth: plain starttls.enable: true host: smtp.gmail.com port: 587 user: example@gmail.com password: secure-pass-phrase email_defaults: from: noreply@gmail.com
