How do I archive to my email?
Send your MyRepChat archives to an email inbox you already use for archiving
MyRepChat can send archive reports of your messages to an email address. Setting it up has two parts: connecting your email, then adding a schedule that tells MyRepChat when to send your archives.
How do I connect my email?
-
In the left menu, select Settings, then Archives, then Connect to Archiver.
-
Under Select an Archiver, select Email.

-
Under Configure: Email, enter your email address in Email Address. To send archives to more than one address, separate them with a semicolon and a space, for example: name@yourfirm.com; compliance@yourfirm.com
-
Leave Sender Address and Sender Name blank. Archive emails come from journal@mail.ionlake.com by default, and some email servers may reject a different sender as spoofing.
-
Turn on the Archiving toggle.
-
Select Save.

Once archiving is on, an Active label shows next to Configure: Email.

How do I set up my archiving schedule?
-
In the left menu, select Settings, then Archives, then Archive Schedule.
-
Under Select an Archiver, select Email.
-
Select + Add Schedule.

-
Enter the Frequency (in hours), such as 24 for once a day.
-
Choose a Start hour.
-
Choose a Layout, or keep Default HTML Archive Layout.
-
Set State to Active.
-
Optional: In Audit email, enter an address to receive a separate email with an audit of your archive.

-
Select Save.

Good to know:
-
Archiving only runs when you have an Active schedule.
-
If there's been no activity, you won't receive an archive email.
-
You can change the addresses in Email Address at any time.
-
To confirm your archives are being sent, go to Settings > Archives > Archive Audit, and select a date. You'll see the number of messages, archives, audits, and failures for that day.
