Personal Account | Public Profile

Personal account in eXpress is also a public profile on in the free eXpress version. A personal account is created:

when a user registers in the eXpress app — on

RTS

. eXpress users registered with a personal account have green badges.

when registering in a branded app — on

ETS

, and if there is no isolation, then also on

RTS

. You cannot use a personal account in such an app.

What Is the Personal Account Responsible For?

A personal account is a free profile in eXpress and technically the basic identification entity of a user in the system. A user can connect to different servers (///), but the permanent identifier remains HUID of the personal account. A personal account is created during almost any registration. Therefore, the system identifies the user by HUID on any servers and even in different applications.

For Administrators: On Which of Several RTS Servers Will the Account Be Created?

eXpress has several public regional servers (

RTS

). A personal account is created on one of them according to the following rules:

• If a user registers using a mobile phone number, their personal account will be created on the
  RTS
  corresponding to the country code (for example, for +7, it will be the Russian one).
• If a user registers without a phone number, the personal account will be created on the
  RTS
  associated with their
  CTS
  or non-isolated
  ETS
  .

Can I Stay in a Personal Account on the Public Server?

Yes, but only in the eXpress app. To stay a “green” user of a public server , start registration with an available mobile phone number. Do not connect to a corporate server and don't accept the eXpress invitation, neither in the next notification nor in the profile settings.

For Administrators: Does the Personal Account Exist on ETS?

In branded apps for

ETS

you cannot log in to a personal account; it exists solely for internal purposes for identification. If

ETS

is not isolated, a personal account is also created on

RTS

, to enable the user to interact with other users in the federation.

Features of an eXpress Public Server Profile

If you haven't connected to a corporate server and are using eXpress on the public server:

• You can create chats and channels and make calls on a public server with any users, with no restrictions on time or number. The server side of eXpress cannot be administered in any way.
• You can send files of not more than 250 MB. Corporate users can send files up to 1 GB.
• You can't create conferences. You can join conferences of corporate users by invitation.
• Corporate functions are unavailable: reminders, SmartApps, and Confidential Mode. If a group chat or channel has a user with a personal account, Confidential Mode cannot be enabled in it.
