Account Settings

Account Settings is where you manage everything that belongs to you as a person, not to any workspace or project. You find it at Manage → Settings → Account Settings (/settings/account, tabs at /settings/account/:tab; default tab is Profile). Unlike Workspace Admin and Project Settings, which act on whichever workspace or project you currently have selected, this page is the same no matter what is active. It is also the one Settings page with no permission gate: every signed-in user can open it, because there is nothing here to grant or restrict access to.

It has four tabs: Profile, Appearance, Personal API keys, and Invitations.

In this section​

  • Profile: the read-only summary of your identity: name, email, join date, and user ID.
  • Appearance: switching between Light and Dark mode, and why it does not follow you to another browser.
  • Personal API keys: generating and revoking keys that authenticate API requests as you.
  • Invitations: accepting pending workspace invitations sent to your account.

Where do notification settings live?​

Personal notification delivery is not on this page. It lives in a project-scoped place instead: the gear icon on the Inbox page, covered in Notification delivery. If you are looking for where to turn email or in-app alerts on or off, that is where to go.

Where to find it​

  • Open it: left sidebar → Manage → Settings → Account Settings, or go straight to /settings/account.
  • From the no-workspace recovery screen: if you belong to zero workspaces, the recovery screen shown instead of the dashboard has an Account settings footer link straight to this page (see Switching and creating workspaces).

How this connects to the rest of the platform​

  • Settings has two other pages, both scoped to whatever workspace or project is active rather than to you personally. See the Settings overview for how all three fit together.
  • Personal API keys vs. Secrets. A personal API key authenticates you against the whole platform from outside it (a script, a CLI, a CI job) and is not scoped to one project. Secrets, documented in the Secrets guide, is the opposite: a per-project vault of credentials that agents use, never a personal login.
  • Invitations here vs. invitations by email link. This tab only shows invitations tied to your account (matched by email). The invitation email itself links to a separate, dedicated accept page that works even before you are signed in. See Accepting an invitation by email link.
