Account

Your account holds your profile, login identity, and email preferences. Changing your display name does not rename the shared Team or alter anyone else's access.

Dashboard

1. Open Account → Account.
2. Edit your name and save.
3. Use the email-change action if you need a new address.
4. Open the verification email sent to the new address and confirm the change.

Password accounts can change email with their current password. For an account created with a login provider, use that provider's account settings.

The email-preference switch controls product updates. Turning it off does not disable verification, password-reset, or security messages.

These operations require cloud:account:manage. Email changes remain in the dashboard because they use the password and browser-session security workflow.
