Your profile controls how you appear to others in Collabase and how you receive notifications. All profile settings are personal — they only affect your own account. Open your profile by clicking your avatar in the bottom-left corner of the sidebar and selecting Profile or Settings.

Profile tab

The Profile tab controls your identity within Collabase. Click Save changes after editing any field.

Phone number format

Enter your number the way you would dial it from abroad: a plus sign, your country code, then the number. Spaces and dashes are fine — Collabase tidies them up when it saves. A number without a country code, such as 044 123 45 67, is not accepted: Save changes stays greyed out and the field explains what is missing. Add your country code to the front and it will save. Leaving the field empty is fine — the number is optional.
If you had a number saved before this rule existed, it may now show as incomplete. Add your country code the next time you edit your profile.

Language

Collabase is fully translated into four languages. Choose yours on the Preferences tab: Changing your language takes effect immediately — the interface reloads in the selected language.
If your account was set up through an identity provider (LDAP, SAML, or SCIM), your name and email may be managed by your company directory. Those fields will be locked in Collabase — update them in your directory and they will sync automatically on your next login or directory sync.

Notifications tab

The Notifications tab controls when and how Collabase notifies you about activity relevant to your work.

In-app notifications

In-app notifications appear in the bell icon in the top navigation bar. Click the bell to open the notification panel. Unread notifications are highlighted. Click any notification to navigate directly to the relevant item and mark it as read. Click Mark all as read to clear all unread indicators at once.

Per-event notification toggles

You can enable or disable notifications for specific events: Toggle each event on or off to match your preferences.

Email digest

If email is configured on your Collabase instance, you can receive a summary of unread notifications by email:

Security tab

The Security tab is where you manage your login credentials and API access.

Changing your password

1

Open your profile and select the Security tab

Click your avatar → Profile → Security.
2

Enter your current password

You must verify your identity before setting a new password.
3

Enter and confirm the new password

Type the new password and then type it again in the confirmation field. Passwords must be at least 8 characters.
4

Click Save

Your password is updated immediately. Active sessions on other devices remain open — only the password itself changes.
Password change is not available for accounts that sign in exclusively through an external provider (Google, GitHub, SAML, or LDAP). To change those credentials, contact your identity provider or IT administrator.

API tokens

API tokens allow you to access Collabase programmatically — for example, to integrate with other tools, run scripts, or use the Collabase API from automation workflows outside the platform.
API tokens grant the same access as your user account. Treat them like passwords. Never share a token or commit one to a code repository.

Creating a token

1

Open your profile and select the Security tab

Scroll to the API Tokens section.
2

Click New Token

Enter a descriptive name that identifies what this token is used for (e.g. “CI Pipeline”, “Zapier Integration”).
3

Copy the token immediately

The full token value is shown only once. Copy it and store it securely (for example, in a password manager or as an environment variable). After you close this dialog, the token cannot be retrieved again.

Managing tokens

The Security tab lists all your active API tokens by name and creation date. The full token value is never shown again after creation. To revoke a token, click the delete button next to it. The token stops working immediately. If a token is lost or compromised, delete it and create a new one.

Profile visibility

Your profile information is visible to other members on your Collabase instance in the following places:
  • Member lists in spaces and projects show your display name and avatar
  • Task and page assignments show your avatar and name
  • Comments and mentions show your display name
  • Profile card (shown when someone clicks your name) displays your display name, avatar, bio, job title, and department
Your email address, timezone, and language preference are not visible to other users — they are private to your account.
  • Identity Providers — how SSO accounts are managed (for accounts provisioned via Google, GitHub, SAML, or LDAP)
  • Permissions — how your role affects what you can see and do
  • Users & Groups — admin view of user accounts
