Here is how to update your profile, and what each settings tab is for, from your theme to your headset test.

Your profile and settings open from the user menu, your username at the top right. Select Profile.

Edit Profile holds your First Name, Last Name, Email Address, and Phone Number. Change what you need, then select Update Profile.

Your email matters: it is used for notifications, like voicemail emails, and as the sender for your emails to customers.

Settings has four tabs. Each tab has its own save button, and Save All Settings, at the bottom, saves every tab at once.

General Preferences switches Dark Mode, Compact View, and whether the sidebar shows by default, and sets your Language and Timezone.

Then select Save General Settings.

Call Settings shows Auto Answer, its delay, and Call Recording. A setting your agency controls is locked, and says Required by your agency policy.

Security sets your Session Timeout, how long you stay signed in without activity. Change Password asks for your current password, and the new one twice.

Audio Settings tests your headset. Select Start Recording, say a few words, then select Stop Recording.

Select Play Recording to hear it back. If you hear yourself, your microphone and speakers work. Discard removes the clip.

If the audio test can't reach your microphone, see Softphone and Microphone Problems.

Your Profile holds your name and contact details; Settings holds your preferences, call settings, password and audio test. Both open from the user menu (your username, top right). This article is for everyone.
