Overview

The My account section allows you to manage your personal profile details and security settings in Swiftask. You can update your identity, change your password, configure email alerts, adjust voice preferences, select your default AI agent, and manage account deletion.

Keeping your personal details up to date ensures accurate identification across team workspaces and protects access to your account. Customizing your default agent and notifications tailors the platform to your personal workflow.

Practical use cases

  • Maintaining profile accuracy: An employee updates their display name and profession to reflect their current role within newly joined workspaces.

  • Notification management: A project manager enables task assignment alerts to ensure swift responses to team deliverables while disabling non-urgent notifications.

  • Personalized workflow start: A developer sets an agent builder bot as their default agent to immediately land in code generation mode upon opening chat.


Tips & best practices

  • Set a strong, unique password to prevent unauthorized access to your account and connected workspaces.

  • Use a recognizable profile picture so team members can easily mention and assign tasks to you.

  • Pick your most frequently used assistant as your default agent to save time on every new conversation.


Troubleshooting

Issue: Cannot change password

  • Cause: The current password was entered incorrectly or the new password fails to meet standard complexity criteria.

  • Fix: Re-enter your current password carefully and ensure the new password is at least 8 characters long with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.

Issue: Cannot delete user account

  • Cause: You are the sole Owner of an active workspace with other team members or active billing subscriptions.

  • Fix: Transfer ownership of your workspaces to another administrator before deleting your personal account.
