Account
Overview
The Account feature in LogCentral provides access to your personal account settings and preferences. This is where you can manage your profile information and account-related configurations.
Accessing Your Account section
Navigate to /account in LogCentral to access your account page. This is your personal space for managing account-level settings that are specific to you as a user, separate from organization-wide configurations.
What You Can Do
The Account page serves as your central hub for personal account management. Here you can review and update your account information, ensuring your profile stays current and accurate.
Common Use Cases
Profile Management
Keep your account information up to date. This helps other team members identify you within shared organizations and ensures you receive important notifications.
Account Security
Review your authentication settings. If you initially signed in using email and password, you can manage those credentials. LogCentral also supports Google and Microsoft sign-in options for added convenience.
Personal Preferences
Configure settings that affect how you interact with LogCentral across all your organizations. These preferences follow you regardless of which organization you're currently viewing.
Authentication Options
LogCentral supports multiple sign-in methods:
Email and Password - Traditional authentication with optional two-factor authentication (2FA) for enhanced security
Google Sign-In - Quick access using your Google account
Microsoft Sign-In - Enterprise-friendly authentication through Microsoft accounts
If you need to change your authentication method or update your password, you can manage these settings through your account page.
Tips for Account Management
Keep Information Current: Regularly review your account details to ensure accuracy, especially if your contact information changes.
Security Best Practices: If using email and password authentication, consider enabling two-factor authentication for additional account protection.
Multiple Organizations: Remember that your account settings are separate from organization settings. Changes here affect your personal profile across all organizations you belong to.
