Profile & preferences

Your name, avatar, skills, password, theme and view preferences — and how to replay onboarding.

Open Profile from the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar.

Your profile

  • Name and avatar — how you appear in assignee pickers, comments and presence indicators. Upload an image; it is stored in your workspace.
  • Job title and department — descriptive fields that make the team directory readable.
  • Skills — the capabilities you have. These are matched against the skills tasks require during automatic allocation, so it is worth keeping them accurate rather than aspirational.

Account and password

Change your password from your profile. If you cannot sign in, use Forgot password on the login page to get a reset link by email.

Accounts created with Google sign in through Google — there is no separate cadence. password to manage.

Theme

cadence. follows your operating system's light/dark setting by default. Override it from the account menu, or toggle it with alt+T. The choice is per browser.

View preferences

Some choices are remembered for you rather than for the team:

  • Phase view — list, kanban or Gantt, remembered across projects.
  • Completed tasks — whether they show in your task list.
  • Bookmarks — the sidebar shortcuts you have pinned.

None of these change anything for anyone else.

Keyboard shortcuts

Press ? for the full overlay, or open it from the account menu. Shortcuts are not customisable — see navigating cadence. for the list.

Replaying onboarding

The setup wizard can be run again from the account menu — useful when you want to create another starter project from a template, or when you skipped it the first time and want to see what it offers.
