Your console account

Your BuildBase console account - your profile, invitations and ownership offers you received, sign-in security and, if self-hosting, installations and plan.

Your account is you, across every organization you belong to. It lives under your avatar, at the bottom of the rail, not under an organization's Settings.

Before you start

Signed in to the console.

Press your avatar at the bottom of the rail. Profile, Security and My invitations are yours; Docs for this page opens the guide for the screen you are on.

2. Your profile

Open your profile in the console

Profile shows Your profile: your name and email address. Log out signs this browser out of the console.

3. Your invitations

Open My invitations in the console

My invitations lists the invitations you have received to join organizations, and any offer to take one over. Accept or decline each there (team and roles).

Open Security in the console

Security is how you sign in, two-step sign-in with an authenticator app, and every browser signed in with your account (account security).

Below your own cards, Two-step sign-in for and the organization's name holds Require two-step sign-in. Only an owner or admin can change it, and only once their own account has two-step sign-in, so it cannot lock them out. Members without it are asked to set it up the next time they open the organization; nobody is signed out.

Two-step sign-in for Acme: the Require two-step sign-in switch, off and highlighted as step 5, with the note to turn on two-step sign-in for your own account first

5. Installations and My billing

Open Installations in the console

If you may self-host BuildBase, the menu and the account sidebar also have Installations and My billing.

Installations lists your Self-hosted installations. Press Create installation to add one; each gets its own API key and serves one or more organizations (self-hosted quick start).
My billing shows Your plan: your own plan, for the installations you run, billed to you and not to any organization. Paid plans open a Stripe checkout and bring you back.

The account sidebar with My billing, highlighted as step 7, and Installations, highlighted as step 6, open on Self-hosted installations with the Create installation button highlighted

Things to watch out for

Signed in with Google, your password and email address are managed in your Google account, not here: Security links to it.
Installations and My billing show only to people who may self-host.

Next Steps

Account security - two-step sign-in and your sessions.
