Personal settings
Appearance, language and formats, workspace defaults, start page, accessibility, and personal API tokens.
Personal settings live under Settings → My account. They affect only your own account, are stored per user per tenant, and never require tenant-administrator rights.
Appearance
Settings → Appearance controls theme and density.
- Theme — Light, System, or Dark. Until you choose, TENSOR follows your operating system.
- Density — Compact, Standard, or Comfortable. The platform default is Standard. Individual tables can additionally remember their own density; a per-table choice beats your global default on that table.
Language and formats
Settings → Language sets your locale and format overrides. Every field offers a blank Tenant default option that clears your override, so the resolution order is always: your setting → the tenant's setting → the platform default.
- Language — English or German.
- Date format — ISO (2026-08-05), short, or long.
- Number format — automatic,
1,234.56,1.234,56, or1 234,56. - Timezone — any IANA timezone name.
- Plus first day of week, hour cycle, and the language used for notifications sent to you.
Workspace defaults
Settings → Workspace holds your working defaults:
- Auto-watch tickets you are assigned and auto-watch tickets you create — both on by default.
- Default comment visibility — Internal or Public. The default is internal, deliberately: it means a hasty comment never leaks to a portal reporter by accident. Switching the default to Public asks you to confirm.
- Default assignment group — pre-selected when you assign tickets.
Settings → Workspace → Snippets manages your personal reply snippets.
Start page
Settings → Start page picks where TENSOR lands after sign-in: Role default, the dashboard, the admin home, the team surface, or the portal home. The choice is re-checked at sign-in — if you lose the role a surface requires, TENSOR falls back to your role's default rather than showing an error.
Notifications
Settings → Notifications is described together with tenant notification routing in Notifications, because the two interact.
Out of office
Settings → Out of office declares an absence window so coverage rules can reassign your work. The keyboard sequence g then o jumps here directly.
Accessibility
Settings → My account → Accessibility:
- Reduce motion — suppresses non-essential animation.
- High contrast — raises contrast across the UI.
- Always show keyboard focus — keeps focus rings visible even after mouse use.
- Font scale — normal, large, or extra large.
Until you set them, platform defaults apply (which respect your operating system's reduced-motion signal).
Personal API tokens
Settings → API tokens issues tokens for the REST API under your own identity and permissions. Tokens expire after 30, 90, or 365 days — there is no non-expiring option. See the REST API and its OpenAPI spec for what a token can do.
Security
Settings → My account → Security shows your security activity feed — a read-only list of security-relevant events on your account, with timestamps and the affected entity.
