User Profile
The profile page is your personal space in Qalyptus Server. It lets you view your account details, manage your credentials, and configure your interface preferences in one place.
To open it, click your profile picture in the top-right corner of any page, then select Profile.
The profile page is organized into three sections: Account, Security, and API Keys.
Account
The Account section displays your personal information and membership details:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Full name | Your display name in Qalyptus Server |
| Your account email address | |
| Language | The interface language used in Qalyptus Hub |
| Time zone | The time zone used for scheduled subscriptions and task execution times |
| Organizations | The organizations you belong to |
| Groups | The groups you are a member of |
| Roles | The roles assigned to your account, which determine your permissions |
Security
The Security section allows you to change your password.
To reset your password:
- Enter your Current password
- Enter the New password
- Confirm the new password
- Click Save
This section allows you to update your Qalyptus password. It will not impact your account if it is managed through an external identity provider (e.g., Windows Authentication, Identity Provider).
API Keys
The API Keys section lists your personal API keys and allows you to generate new ones for programmatic access to Qalyptus Server REST APIs.
This section is only visible if an administrator has enabled API key authentication under Administration > General > Settings > API Keys.
To generate a new API key:
- Click Create key
- Enter a Name to identify the key
- Set an Expiration date
- Click Save
- Copy the key immediately, it will not be shown again
API keys grant access equivalent to your user permissions. Store them securely and never share them. If a key is compromised, delete it immediately and generate a new one.
You can only use API keys if your account has a role that permits API access.
For the full administrator guide, see API Keys.
