What it does

Settings is where you manage your own account and, if you are an admin, your organization. Open it from the user menu at the bottom of the left sidebar. Settings are grouped into Account, which everyone sees, and Organization, which only admins see.

Your profile

Under Profile you can change the name shown to your teammates, upload a profile picture, and choose your Interface theme, either Light or Dark. This panel also lists every organization you belong to and the role you hold in each, with the option to switch between them.

Notification preferences

Under Notifications you decide what reaches you and how. There is one master switch for in-app notifications, and separate switches for each kind of email, so you can keep the ones you want and turn off the rest:
  • an item is shared with you
  • someone commented on an item you have access to
  • someone replied to a comment thread you are on
  • someone mentioned you in a comment
  • an analysis you own completes or fails
Changes save as you make them, so there is nothing to submit.
Turning off the in-app master switch disables all in-app notifications, not just some. If you only want less email, leave it on and switch off the individual email types instead.

Account security

Under Security you can manage how you sign in.
1

Add an email address

Choose Add email address and enter it. Pluvo sends a verification email, and the address is added once you confirm it.
2

Change your password

Choose Update password, then enter your current password and your new one. New passwords must be at least 8 characters. You can also sign out of all other devices at the same time, which is recommended if you think your old password may have been used elsewhere.
3

Turn on two-factor authentication

Choose Enable, then pick either an Authenticator app or SMS. For an authenticator app you scan a QR code, or copy the setup key, then enter the 6 digit code to confirm. For SMS you enter your phone number and confirm the code you are sent.
4

Save your backup codes

However you set it up, Pluvo then shows you a set of backup codes. Copy them and store them somewhere safe, because they are how you get into your account if you lose your device.
Your backup codes are shown once, when you first turn on two-factor authentication. Save them at that point, because there is no way to view them again later.
If you sign in through your company’s single sign-on, you will not see the password option, since your identity provider handles it.

Organization settings

These are available to admins. General is where you set your organization’s name and logo. People is where you manage who has access. You can see everyone in your organization along with their role, status, and when they joined, plus any invitations that have not been accepted yet. A seat counter shows how many seats you have left.
1

Invite someone

Choose Invite user, enter their email address, and pick a role. They get an invitation and appear as pending until they accept.
2

Set or change a role

Change someone’s role directly in the list. There are three roles: Guest, Member, and Admin.
3

Remove someone

Use the menu at the end of their row to remove a member, or to revoke an invitation that has not been accepted.
Moving someone to Guest transfers ownership of what they own and makes their access view only. Pluvo asks you to confirm first, and the change cannot be undone.
You need to be in the organization before anything can be shared with you, so if a colleague cannot be found when someone tries to share a report, invite them here first.
