SmartPass — Chrome Extension

SmartPass is SmartDoc's official Chrome extension that provides instant access to the password vault directly from your browser. No more switching between tabs — your client credentials are one click away.

Installation

  1. Open the Chrome Web Store
  2. Click Add to Chrome
  3. The SmartPass icon appears in your toolbar
  4. Log in with your SmartDoc credentials

SmartPass is compatible with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge (Chromium).

Login

On first launch, SmartPass asks you to identify your organization. Enter your company slug (e.g., mycompany) or the full domain (e.g., mycompany.mspsmart.ca), then click Continue.

Once connected, your SmartDoc credentials are used to authenticate the session.

PIN Lock

After logging in, SmartPass lets you set up a 6-digit PIN code to protect access to your credentials. This PIN is required each time you open the extension, providing an extra layer of security without re-entering your full credentials.
