Linking your personal account to your Teams/Enterprise account

Linking your personal account to your Teams/Enterprise account

If you already have a personal/free LastPass account, associated with an email address that is *not* your work/organisation email address, you can link that account into your Teams/Enterprise account in a way that allows you to see, use and file personal secrets in your personal “vault” (and also allows you to see, use and file work/organisation secrets in your Teams/Enterprise vault and shared folders).

The steps for linking your personal account into your Teams/Enterprise account are:

1. Log in to LastPass and access your Vault by doing either of the following:
   • Go to https://lastpass.com/?ac=1 and log in with your username and Master Password.
   • In your web browser toolbar, click the LastPass icon  then click Open My Vault.
2. Click Link Account in the left navigation.
3. When prompted, enter your personal account email address and Master Password.
4. Click Link Account.
5. If your company account is enabled for Multifactor Authentication, you will be prompted to authenticate.
6. Once authenticated, your LastPass Vault will refresh and “Link Account” will no longer be displayed as a menu item in the left navigation, and your Sites and Secure Notes entries will be displayed as a folder listed as your personal account’s username with “Linked Personal Account” displayed in the right navigation
   • 

Once your personal account is linked, it will appear as a sub-folder for your Sites and Secure Notes in your Enterprise Vault. Your personal account is treated as a Shared Folder between your personal and company accounts, and is subject to the same restrictions and properties therein.

You should be aware of the following limitations with linked personal/free accounts:

• It is not possible to share an item located in your personal account with anyone when you are logged into your Teams/Enterprise account. To work around this, you have to log out of your Teams/Enterprise account; log into your personal/free account; create the share; then log back out and into your Teams/Enterprise account.
