By default, the AODocs Smartbar connects to your G Suite domain and gives access only to documents belonging to your domain.

However, the AODocs Smartbar can be configured to access a domain that is different from your default domain.
For example, the user Alice (alice@domainA.com), who belongs to the domainA.com domain, can configure her Smartbar to access the AODocs folders belonging to another domain, such as domainB.com (assuming that the administrators of the domainB.com domain have allowed her to access their AODocs libraries).
In a similar way, the user Bob (bob@gmail.com), who does not belong to any G Suite domain, can configure his Smartbar to access the AODocs libraries he has been given access to on domainB.com domain.
1. Access the AODocs Smartbar settings panel.
2. At the bottom of the settings panel, open the drop-down menu and select the domain you want to activate the Smartbar on.
Note: You can activate only one domain at a time. This means that the Smartbar features are available only for the files stored on the domain that you have selected. If you don't have a drop-down menu in the settings panel, it means that your email address hasn't been added as an external user in the AODocs administration. Learn more: Manage external users.
The following tables sum up the different situations and the features available.
