Account settings

Your account settings and preferences in Tana

Basics

Account settings is where you control things on the account/browser level (as opposed to workspace level).

To find your account settings, click on the user icon in the bottom of the sidebar:

From the top:

  • [your email]
    • Manage your account: Go here to manage your Tana subscription and billing details.
    • Delete account: Go here to permanently delete your Tana account. WARNING: This is not reversible, it puts your email on a delete list and blocks it from getting a new account. If you want a fresh start, look at this.
    • Log out: Log out from your Tana account
  • Settings: Access Tana-wide settings menu. See here for more.
  • Tana Labs: Where experimental things go. See here for more.
  • API tokens: If you subscribe to Tana Core, you can create and refresh API tokens per workspace here. See here for more.
  • Import content: Options for importing content into Tana. See here for more.
  • Invite to Tana: Invites you have will show up here.
  • "web@XXX.XX.X": The client version number. For the latest release notes, see here.
  • Report bug: The official way to log bugs to the Tana team. Opens a chat that guides you through the process.

Settings

You can also access the Settings via the command line: Open settings

This will open a new dock with your settings. These will vary based on features you have used in Tana, but below is a fairly average example of what it may look like:

Google Calendar integration

Date/Time settings

Here you can set your Time Zone, Time format, and First day of the week preferences. They represent the account settings, and also your private workspace settings. When you are browsing another workspace with different settings, the times will be adjusted accordingly.

Time Zones use the international standard for setting timezones. See here for the official nomenclature of TZ.
