Carbon

Your account

Personal, self-service settings for profile, passkeys and two-factor, notification preferences, theme, and language — separate from company-wide settings.

The Account settings window manages your profile, credentials, notification preferences, and display settings. These settings affect only your account and require no special permission. Company-wide configuration is under Settings and requires administrative access. Open Account Settings from your avatar menu; the window opens over the page you are on, so closing it returns you to where you were.

Profile

Profile information is visible to other users. The form warns: "This information will be visible to all users, so be careful what you share."

FieldType
Your display name across Carbon.
Optional.
A short bio, capped at 160 characters.
Your avatar. Upload a photo, or pick a generated avatar with Choose avatar: choose a style (Croodles Neutral, Notionists, Lorelei, Loops, Pixel Art, Voxel Art, Voxel Bot, Planets and their neutral variants), then an avatar, and optionally a Background color (Reset returns to the style's own); Shuffle shows new ones. New users start with no avatar and show their initials; removing an uploaded photo switches to a new generated avatar.
Shown but read-only. Your email is your sign-in identity, so changing it is handled outside these self-service settings.

Signing in

Carbon supports magic links, Google or Microsoft OAuth, and passkeys; it does not use passwords. Available methods are configured for the deployment, not per user.

Security holds everything you sign in with.

Use Account → Security to manage credentials. Add a passkey through your browser's WebAuthn prompt to sign in with Face ID, Touch ID, or a device PIN. Rename passkeys to identify their devices, or remove one to revoke it. Each row shows when the passkey was added and last used. This screen also contains the authenticator-app settings. See two-factor authentication for setup, enforcement, and recovery.

TIP

Keep more than one way in

A passkey is tied to a device. Register a second passkey to retain access if the first device is unavailable; otherwise, use a magic link.

Notification preferences

Account → Notifications contains topic-by-channel preferences. In-app notifications are always delivered. The toggles control email and, when connected, Slack. Each topic and channel is enabled by default; turn off a switch to opt out of that combination. The Browser notifications card enables or disables browser push for the current browser; like in-app, it has no per-topic switch. See notifications for notification triggers and channel availability.

Theme, language, and attributes

Your color theme is stored in a browser cookie, so it applies only to the current device. Company-wide branding is an administrative setting. Carbon stores a language preference, but this screen does not currently expose a language selector.

Your company can define categorized user attributes, such as certification dates or shift preferences. An attribute appears on your public profile only when its category is public. You can edit its value only when it is marked .

For the switches that shape the whole company, see company settings and people.
