How it Works
Using Kalix, you will be able to share with clients, their own personal link to sign-up for a free Nutritionix Pro account (or link up their existing account) (see below for details).
What the client does
The client clicks on the shared link. They will be taken to a page where they can create a Nutritionix Track account or log in and link up their existing Nutritionix Track account.
The client can then download the Nutritionix app on their phone or tablet.
What You Will See
The client's file in Kalix will be directly linked to their Nutritionix Track account. As soon as the client logs something in Nutritionix, you will be able to see it in Kalix.

Do Not Use Your Coach ID
After you have successfully connected Kalix and Nutritionix Track via the Account Settings page (Stage 1), you will receive the below, automated email.

Setting-up Link Sharing
There are three different methods for sharing this unique link with clients:
Option 1: Appointment Notices & Reminders

2) Scroll down to the Automated Messages section.
3) Click on the Edit Message Templates associated with Appointment Notices and/or Reminders.
4) In the Message Template, place your cursor at the location you wish to add the auto text field (like you would do when starting to type).

6) You may wish to add text around the link to provide instructions to your clients.
7) Click Save.
Sharing Nutritionix with Clients
Using this method, you do not need to do anything to share with clients their personal Nutritionix link. They will automatically receive the link as part of all appointment reminder and/or appointment notice messages.
Option 2: Online Documents
Kalix also supports automatically sharing the personal Nutritionix link via the message associated with online forms and documents.
You can edit the message template associated with an existing template and add the Nutritionix auto text field.
Use the Sharing Nutritionix Track Template
Alternatively, if you would like to use a template specifically set-up to share the clients' personal Nutritionix links, there is one available as part of the Template Library. Its location is shown below:
