Your Account
The Account section is available to every employee. It holds your personal profile, your sign-in settings and the places where you see and end what is signed in to your account.
Opening the account
Click your name in the top-right corner of the header. The Account page has these tabs:
| Tab | Shown when |
|---|---|
Profile |
Always. |
Access Tokens |
Your role has the permission Personal access tokens and your organization has the license. |
Authorizations |
Your organization has the license for OAuth applications. |
App passwords |
Your role has the permission App passwords and your organization has the license. |
Sessions |
Always. |
The tabs Access Tokens and App passwords are described in Access Tokens and App Passwords.
Profile
The top of the Profile tab shows when the account was Created and your Email address. The e-mail address cannot be changed here. The rest of the tab is split into blocks, and each block has its own save button.
| Block | What you can do |
|---|---|
Basic information |

Contact |
Edit your Phone. |
Avatar |
Add a photo with Upload photo, or delete it with Remove. |
Login |
Confirm or change your Username. |
Language |

Change password |

Name, Phone and the photo can be edited only when your role allows you to edit your own employee record. Without that permission the fields are read-only. The saved changes show Employee data updated.
The Language block needs no permission. Press Save, and the page shows Language saved and switches to the chosen language.
Username
The Login block shows your username and its state. It reads Username confirmed, or Not confirmed yet. Until you confirm it, you can also sign in with your e-mail.
-
To confirm the username you have, press Confirm.
-
To choose another one, type it and press Save. A field Current password appears, because a new username needs your current password.
The format and the rules for confirmation are described in Signing In and Out.
Changing your password
The block Change password has these fields, in this order:
-
New password, with the hint At least <min> characters. Previous passwords you cannot reuse: <count>.
-
Repeat new password.
-
Current password.
Press Save. A change shows Password changed successfully. A wrong current password shows The current password is incorrect.
After a change, every other session of your account ends, and the session you are working in stays open. A reset link that you requested earlier stops working.
When the organization sets a password lifetime, the block also shows Password expires with the date and time. It shows when the password expires. The password rules and the lifetime are described in Password Policy and Sign-In Protection.
Forgotten password
You can request a reset link while you are signed in.
-
In the block Change password, click Forgot password?
-
The dialog Reset password says that a link will be sent to the e-mail address of your account. Press Send a reset link to my e-mail.
-
The dialog confirms with A password reset link has been sent to <email>., where the address is masked.
The link and the page it opens are described in Signing In and Out.
Two-step verification
At the end of the Profile tab the block Two-step verification turns the verification on or off, manages the authenticator app and generates backup codes. Two-Step Verification describes each step.
Sessions
The Sessions tab lists the devices that are signed in to your account. Every employee sees it, and it needs neither a permission nor a license.
| Column | Content |
|---|---|
Device |
An icon and the browser and system, or Unknown device. The session you are working in has the badge This device. |
IP address |
The address the session was last used from. |
Signed in |
When the session was opened. |
Last activity |
How long ago the session was last used. |
The newest use comes first. A session whose time has run out is not listed.
You can end any one of your sessions with End, or all other sessions at once with End all other sessions.
The button End all other sessions (<count>) leaves the session you are working in open. Ending the session of another device signs that device out at once. Ending the session you are working in signs you out and takes you to the sign-in page.
How long a session lasts is set by the organization, as described in Password Policy and Sign-In Protection. Logging out with the header icon ends only the session you are working in, as described in Signing In and Out.
Authorizations
The Authorizations tab lists the applications that you allowed to act for you. The tab belongs to the OAuth applications function. This function is licensed. If your organization’s license does not include it, contact CityScreen.
| Column | Content |
|---|---|
Application |
The name and the scopes the application received. The note Signed out when you sign out marks an application that registered a logout address. |
Registered |
Added by an administrator or Registered itself. A self-registered application also carries the badge Unverified. |
Authorized |
When you allowed the application. |
Last used |
When the application last used its access, or Never used. |
Press Revoke to withdraw an application’s access. The application’s access tokens and refresh tokens stop working at once, and the application can ask for your permission again. For an application that registered itself, Revoke also deletes your record of it, and that needs the permission to delete OAuth applications. Without it you see This application registered itself, and revoking it deletes its record, which needs the permission to delete. Ask an administrator.
Administrators register applications as described in OAuth Applications.
