# User Configuration

**Settings** is where your personal preferences live — who you are, what timezone you work in, which accounts you've connected, and what Darcy notifies you about. Open it from the user menu in the top navigation, or jump straight there with the [command menu](/core-features/command-menu.md).

The page is split into **Personal** settings, which only affect you, and **Organization** settings, which affect everyone in your org and require admin permissions.

## Appearance

DarcyIQ supports **light** and **dark** themes across the platform.

The theme switch is in the **user menu** in the top navigation, beside your name and email — a sun for light, a moon for dark. The change applies instantly, no reload needed.

{% hint style="info" %}
Your theme is remembered by the browser you're using, not by your account. Signing in on a different computer, or in a private window, starts you back on the light theme.
{% endhint %}

A few pages are intentionally always light: public story pages, public interview pages, and anything you export to PDF. Exports are captured in light mode so the file looks right when printed or shared, regardless of the theme you're using.

## Profile

The **Profile** tab holds your identity and personal preferences.

| Setting            | Notes                                                                        |
| ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Name**           | How you appear to teammates across the platform                              |
| **Role**           | Your job role, chosen from a searchable list. Helps Darcy tailor suggestions |
| **Timezone**       | Drives when your scheduled work runs — see below                             |
| **Phone**          | Optional contact number                                                      |
| **Reset password** | Sends you through the password reset flow                                    |

Your organization and email address are shown here too, but they aren't editable from this page.

## Timezone

Your timezone tells Darcy when to run the work you schedule. Set it once and every schedule you create follows your local clock instead of UTC.

**Where to set it:**

* During **onboarding**, on the first step, where it's pre-filled from your browser
* Any time afterward, from the clock button on your **Profile** tab

Click the timezone button, choose **Edit**, and search the list — timezones use standard IANA names like `America/New_York` or `Europe/London`. If you've never set one, Darcy uses `America/New_York`.

**What it affects:**

* **Automation and agent schedules** — a job set for 9:00 AM runs at 9:00 AM where you are. The scheduler stores your timezone alongside the schedule and works out the right moment to run, including across daylight saving changes
* **Schedule descriptions** — summaries like *Once a day at 9:00 AM EST* are written in your timezone
* **Automation results** — result cards show the timezone alongside the timestamp

{% hint style="info" %}
Your timezone is saved to your account, so it applies everywhere you sign in. Note that it governs *scheduling*; timestamps elsewhere in the product generally follow the clock on the device you're using, which only differs if you're travelling.
{% endhint %}

## Connected Accounts

Connect the accounts Darcy works on your behalf with — Google, Microsoft Outlook, Zoom, and others. Each entry shows whether it's currently connected and lets you connect or disconnect it.

For what each integration can do once connected, see [Integrations](/build/integration-overview.md).

{% hint style="info" %}
Integrations used to have their own settings tab. That link now takes you to the homepage and opens the integrations panel instead.
{% endhint %}

## Notifications

A grid of every event Darcy can tell you about, with a switch per delivery method. Cover workflow runs, meetings, lists, and lead lists — turn on the ones you want to hear about and leave the rest off.

## Meeting Recording

Controls what Darcy does with your calendar by default: whether she joins and records meetings automatically, and which meetings to leave alone. Exclusion rules are useful for keeping recurring internal standups or one-to-ones out of your recordings.

See [Meetings](/core-features/meeting-recording-and-transcription.md) for the full picture, and [Calendar Settings](/settings-and-configuration/user-configuration/calendar-settings.md) for calendar connections.

## API Keys

If you have permission to manage them, the **API Keys** tab lets you create and revoke keys for the public API. Keys are shown once at creation — copy it then, because you can't retrieve it later.

## Organization Settings

These tabs are visible to everyone but only editable by administrators.

| Tab                        | What it covers                                                                                                                                                                            |

| **Knowledge Bases**        | Shared [knowledge bases](/additional-features/knowledge-bases.md) for your org                                                                                                            |

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.darcyiq.com/settings-and-configuration/user-configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
