Profile and preferences

Purpose

Your profile page is the hub for everything about you as a Senti user: your display name, phone number, and avatar; whether Senti emails you about trades and bot status; and quick links out to Subscription, Password, Security activity, and API Keys. This page walks through each block of the profile page, the email-notifications toggle, and the file-upload area — and points you to the right pages for the destructive actions in the Danger zone.

Prerequisites

  • A Senti account you can sign in to — see Create your account.
  • To change your email’s Verified status, access to your email inbox (the verification link is sent there).

Step-by-step

Update your personal information

  1. Open the profile page from the user menu — choose Profile Settings — or navigate to /profile. The page is titled Profile and the first card is Personal information.

  2. Check your email row. Your Email is shown read-only with the helper text “Email cannot be changed.” Next to it is a Verified or Unverified badge.

    Note. If your email is unverified, some account actions may be limited. Use the Resend button in the Account & security block (below) to get a fresh verification link — you’ll see “Verification email sent. Check your inbox.”

  3. Set your display name in the Display name field (placeholder “Your display name”). This is the name shown across the app.

  4. Add a phone number (optional) in the Phone number field (placeholder +84 xxx xxx xxxx).

  5. Set an avatar (optional). Paste an image URL into the Avatar URL field (placeholder https://example.com/avatar.jpg). A live Avatar preview shows the image before you save.

  6. Press “Save changes”. The button shows Saving… while in flight, then you’ll see “Profile updated successfully.”

Turn email notifications on or off

  1. Find the “Email notifications” toggle on the profile page. Its helper text reads: “Receive trade alerts, bot status updates, and account notifications via email.”
  2. Flip the toggle to your preference and press “Save changes”. When off, Senti stops sending those emails; in-app notifications are separate and unaffected by this toggle.

  1. Read the “Account & security” card. It shows your Role, Member since date, and Email verified status (with Resend if not verified).
  2. Use the “More” list to jump to related settings:
    • Subscription — “Plan, billing & invoices” → Manage. See Plans & billing.
    • Password — “Change your account password” → Reset.
    • Security activity — “Review every change made to your account” → View. See Security activity and account deletion.
    • API Keys — “Programmatic access & tokens for the public API” → Manage. See API keys.

⚠️ Danger zone. At the bottom of the profile page is the Danger zone card: “Deactivates your account and shuts down your trading bots. Data is retained; erasure is handled by support.” The Delete account button starts the account-deletion flow — read Security activity and account deletion before pressing it.

  1. Sign out with the Sign out button when you’re done (it shows Signing out… briefly).

Upload and manage files

Senti includes a simple file area at /file-upload for uploading, listing, downloading, and deleting your own files.

  1. Open /file-upload.
  2. Choose a file and upload it. Allowed types are JPEG, PNG, PDF, text files, and MP4/QuickTime video, with a maximum size of 5 MB per file. Files outside these limits are rejected before upload.
  3. Manage your files from the list on the same page — each file can be downloaded (via a time-limited signed link) or deleted.

Warnings & constraints

⚠️ Your email address cannot be changed. The email field is read-only — “Email cannot be changed.” If you need a different address, contact support.

  • The Email notifications toggle covers “trade alerts, bot status updates, and account notifications” delivered by email; it does not delete or hide in-app notifications.
  • File uploads are limited to 5 MB and to the allowed types listed above.
  • The avatar is set by URL, not by file upload — the image must be hosted somewhere publicly reachable for the preview (and the app) to display it.
  • The Danger zone and account deletion are irreversible past their cooling-off period — see the dedicated page before acting.
