Personal Account Settings
The personal management hub where individual users configure their profile, security layers (2FA, password), notification preferences, API tokens, and connected external accounts. Distinct from the Organization module — this controls your personal experience only.
Your Personal Command Deck
Every individual journey on Orbitus begins with precise personal configuration. The Account Settings module is uniquely designated for the individual logged-in user — not global system settings. Here you manage your digital footprint, connect external authentication pathways, control how the system contacts you, and secure your account.
👤 Profile Management
Update your display name, profile photo, job title, phone number, timezone, and preferred language. Your profile photo appears across the platform — in message threads, ticket assignments, and task cards — so team members can quickly identify you.
🛡️ Security, 2FA & Trusted Devices
The Security panel lets you change your password and enforce Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) using authenticator apps (Google Authenticator, Authy). Active sessions can be reviewed and remotely terminated. You can also manage Trusted Devices, allowing you to bypass 2FA prompts on personal hardware while ensuring suspicious logins are blocked.
🔔 Notification Preferences
Fine-tune exactly how the system contacts you. Toggle notification channels (email, browser push, in-app) for each event type independently. For example: disable email alerts for "System Updates" while keeping urgent SMS alerts for "Workflow Failures". Set quiet hours to suppress non-critical notifications outside business hours.
🔑 Personal API Tokens (PATs)
Developers generate Personal Access Tokens for external scripting and API integrations. Each token is scoped with specific permissions (read-only, read-write) and has a configurable expiration (7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or custom). This avoids exposing your main password in automation scripts.
🔗 Connected Accounts (SSO)
Link external Single Sign-On providers to your Orbitus profile: Google, GitHub, Microsoft, or custom SAML/OAuth providers. Once connected, you can log in with a single click from the provider's login page without entering Orbitus credentials.
👥 Sub-Users (Delegation)
Grant partial account access to assistants or external contractors through Sub-Users. Instead of sharing your primary credentials, you create limited-access profiles that can act on your behalf with strict permission boundaries.
Use Case: Secure API Integration
A senior data analyst wants to pull daily reports from Orbitus using a custom Python script. Rather than embedding their password in the code, they navigate to Account → Tokens and generate a scoped "Read-Only Analytics Token" set to expire in 30 days. They embed this token into their script. Simultaneously, they activate 2FA under Security, cementing their profile against potential threats while cleanly executing their external integration.
