FAQs
Q: Can I change my email address?
Yes, unless your organisation uses SSO (Single Sign-On), in which case email changes may need to be made by your IT team in the identity provider.
Q: Will changing my time zone affect my past activity?
No, your past activity remains recorded at the time it occurred. The time zone setting only affects how future times are displayed to you.
Q: Who can see my profile?
Your profile is visible to other users in your organisation. They can search for you and view your overview page, including your bio, skills, and any content you've shared.
