Set your preferences¶
Your preferences decide how OS opens for you. Only you read and change them; an administrator can neither see nor change them. Your name, e-mail address and password belong to your account, not to your preferences, and you change them in the account pages of the sign-in screen.
What you can set¶
| Preference | What it does |
|---|---|
| Language | The language of OS's screens. |
| Start page | The page OS opens first. |
| Navigation | The state of the navigation, as you left it. |
| Last organisation | The organisation OS opens with when you belong to more than one. OS keeps this itself. |
| Tour | Whether you have seen or skipped the tour, so it appears once. Show the tour again in the menu under your name shows it once more. |
| What's new | Whether you have opened the newest release notes, so the dot on your name goes away until the next release. |
The last organisation is a convenience, not access: you only see organisations you are a member of.
Change a preference¶
Choose the new value in your settings. What you do not change stays as it was. The change applies to you in every organisation.
Have your data erased¶
You can ask to be erased completely. OS then removes all your memberships, erases what you made in the AI features of every organisation, deletes your account and erases your name, address and preferences. This cannot be undone, and your administrator does not have to take part.
Via the API¶
GET /api/v1/me shows your details, your memberships and your preferences;
PATCH /api/v1/me/preferences changes your preferences; GET and PUT /api/v1/me/seen-items read and mark what you have already seen; DELETE /api/v1/me erases you everywhere.
