Client Portal & Files

Sharing a Public Client Portal Link

Generate secure, token-protected client portal links where clients can review deliverables, leave revision feedback, and view project timelines without creating an account.

Clients hate signing up for complex project management tools just to approve a logo or download a PDF. Flanceflow solves this with the Public Client Portal—a secure, branded webpage accessible via a unique token link where clients can inspect milestones, download files, and submit revision feedback with zero friction.

  1. Open your project workspace and navigate to the "Client Portal" tab.
  2. Click the "Enable Portal" toggle switch if it is not already active.
  3. Configure section visibility (choose whether to show Timeline, Files, Invoices, or Progress).
  4. Click "Generate Secure Link" or "Copy Portal Link".
  5. Paste the link into your email, Slack message, or WhatsApp conversation with the client.
  6. Your client clicks the link and immediately lands on their personalized, studio-branded project hub without needing to log in or create a password.

Portal best practices

  • Welcome message: Add a personalized welcome note (e.g. "Welcome Acme team! Review your latest prototype screens below.") to greet clients on arrival.
  • Custom branding: The portal automatically displays your studio logo and header color configured in Workspace Settings.
  • Revision notifications: When a client submits feedback or approves a deliverable through the portal, Flanceflow sends an instant push alert and email to your studio.
