Notifying Agents Using Veslink Agent Portal

You can share port call information with agents via Veslink Agent Portal. Additionally, if you are partnered with agents who are submitting forms directly via the Veslink API, you must specify them on the Agents and Notices form.

Notification emails are sent to agents when they are nominated for that port call. Emails will also be sent whenever data relating to that port call is changed.

To set up automatic emails to an agent:

1. Set up the agent for Agent Portal.
2. On the agent's Veslink Company Profile page, the agent must specify a Nomination Email address.
