Update your name, appearance and sign-in

Your personal details live on two tabs in Settings: Profile for how you appear and how the app looks, and Account for how you sign in.

Change your display name

1. Open Settings from the Manage group.
2. Stay on the Profile tab.
3. Edit Full name and save.

This is the name your teammates see across the workspace. It refreshes everywhere once your account finishes syncing, usually within seconds.

Switch between light and dark

On the same Profile tab, the Appearance card offers three choices:

• Light: always light.
• Dark: always dark.
• System: follows your device, so it flips with your operating system's own light and dark schedule.

The choice applies to you alone, not to your workspace.

What you cannot change here

Your email, department and role are shown on Profile but are read only.

• Email is your sign-in identity.
• Department and role are workspace managed. An admin changes them from Team. If you have not been put in a department yet, this reads Not assigned.

Ask an admin rather than looking for a control that is not there.

Review your sign-in and change your password

Open the Account tab. It shows:

• Sign in method, along with the email tied to your account.
• Change password, which opens your secure account profile. This is only available when your account actually uses a password. If you use single sign-on, the row is disabled, and you change that password with the sign-in service instead.
• Sign out, which asks you to confirm and then returns you to the sign-in page.

Account security is handled by the secure sign-in provider rather than by a form inside TalentOS, which is why the password flow opens its own panel.

A worked example

A new designer joins mid week with single sign-on and appears to everyone as "dh". She opens Settings, Profile, sets her full name to "Dana Hale", and picks Dark appearance. She notices her department reads Not assigned, messages her admin, and by the afternoon her Profile shows Brand, which also puts her department's shared memory in reach of her Talent.

What to check

• Change password is greyed out. Your account does not use a password. Change it with the provider you sign in through.
• Your new name has not appeared for teammates. Give account sync a moment and reload. If it is still stale after a few minutes, contact support.
• Department still says Not assigned. Only an admin can set it, from Team.
• The theme keeps reverting. You are probably on System, and your device is switching. Choose Light or Dark explicitly.
• Settings will not load at all. Reload once, then contact support with the message the page shows.
