Admin: Enable/Disable Thread and Email Autopilot for Users

ExtendSync Outlook | Manage users Autopilot configuration from the portal

Overview

The CloudExtend Subscription Portal allows admins to manage user licenses at https://portal.cloudextend.app/.


When a subscription starts, a super admin is granted access to the portal. Super Admins and Admins can enable or disable the Email & Thread Autopilot feature for users.

❗ Important
Email & Thread Autopilot configuration is only available for Enterprise Edition.

This article covers Email & Thread Autopilot only

  • This controls the user-level autopilot that individuals configure from the ExtendSync add-in.

  • It does not control Global Autopilot, which is configured separately by an admin in the portal and applies org-wide without end-user setup.

How to Enable or Disable Email & Thread Autopilot for Users

  1. Visit https://portal.cloudextend.app/ and log in to the Admin Portal with your Microsoft ID. (This ID was provided earlier to your Customer Success Manager and is typically your Microsoft 365 email address.)
    ​

  2. Navigate to Subscriptions > Feature Assignment (labeled 'Email and Thread Autopilot Configuration' in the portal).

  3. Click on Edit.

  4. Admins can either:

  • Enable Email & Thread Autopilot for All

  • Enable/Disable Email & Thread Autopilot for individual users from the list.

🔄 Any update may take up to 1 hour to take effect.
Users can also reload the add-in for changes to apply immediately.

💡 Tip:

  • ExtendSync gives users full control over how emails are attached to NetSuite. We've created a video and guide with suggestions on when to use each method.

  • The Feature Assignment section in the portal is labeled 'Email and Thread Autopilot Configuration' — this refers to this article's feature only and does not affect Global Autopilot settings.


FAQs
