With the external connection feature, you can communicate with LINE or LINE WORKS users outside your company.
From collaborating with partners to responding to customers’ needs, just remember that LINE WORKS has you covered.
Connect faster and improve work efficiency while reducing the security risks to a minimum on LINE WORKS!
1. Before connecting with users outside your company
For the paid plan users, the administrator must turn on the ‘Chat with LINE users’ or ‘Chat with LINE WORKS users from other comapnies’. For the free plan, the permission to connect with external users are given as default.
Please note that LINE WORKS users you want to connect with must have permission to connect with external users.

5. Replying automatically to external messages after work
Message sure is a casual way to get in touch, but you may not want to be bothered during off-hours.
Still, you could be worried that people who are not from the same company may not know your working hours and could be waiting for your response. In such case, you can set up an automatic reply to inform your working hours and availability throughout the day.
