Your settings

Settings holds what applies to you rather than to your organisation. Everything here is yours to change; an administrator's settings are in the admin guide.

Profile#

Your name, which is how you appear to colleagues on requests, decisions and comments, and your time zone. Your email address is shown at the top of the page; it is the address you sign in with.

Push notifications#

Push puts approval requests on a phone's or computer's lock screen, and opens them with one tap. It is turned on per device, because a browser can only subscribe itself: open Settings on each device you want it on and choose Turn on for this device. The card says how many of your devices have it on.

• iPhone and iPad: add the site to your home screen from Safari's share menu, open it from there, and turn push on in Settings. Safari offers push only to sites on the home screen.
• Blocked: if you once refused notifications for the site, allow them again in your browser's site settings, then come back.
• Push carries new approval requests and their reminders. It is sent beside the email, never instead of it.
• The card appears only where push is set up for your organisation's deployment.

Out of office#

Name a colleague to cover your approvals while you are away. While it runs, a new request that names you also reaches them, and anything already waiting on you is passed to them too. You stay on every request, so you can still decide if you look in.

1. 1

   Choose who covers

   Any active member of your organisation other than you.

2. 2

   Say until when

   Up to 90 days. Cover ends on the day you pick.

3. 3

   Add a note

   Optional, up to 300 characters. It goes into the reason shown on each request they are added to.

4. 4

   Set cover

   Requests already waiting on you are passed on at once.

Covering widens who may answer without raising how many must: a request that needs one approval from you needs one from you or your cover, not both. Your cover is never added to a request they made themselves. When you are back, press I'm back and new requests come only to you again.

Notifications#

Choose which of these reach you in the app, by email, both or neither:

The table shows the defaults. Invitations, access requests, approvals addressed to you and the decisions on approvals you asked for always arrive, whatever you choose, because somebody is waiting on you. So do reviews and requests for information addressed to you. Security and billing messages are always sent. How requests reach you in Slack, Teams and by push is covered in Your inbox and notifications.

API tokens#

A token lets a tool act as you: the REST API, the MCP connector or the CLI. It inherits your publishing permissions. Name it after where it will be used, create it, and copy it straight away — it is shown once. The list shows each token's prefix and when it was last used; revoke one the moment it is no longer needed.

Many AI tools connect without a token at all, by signing in as you — see Connect an AI tool. Tokens for agents that act on their own, rather than as you, are created by administrators under Agents. For how tokens are used, see Authentication.
