Profile

You can view your profile details and create Personal Access Tokens using the 12d Synergy Client application > Window menu option > My Profile option. Personal access tokens are an alternative to using passwords by a third-party application to connect to the 12d Synergy system for integration

1.1. What can you do in the My Profile window?

• You can view and set the timezone for your application. Double-click in the Value column of the Timezone row to change your timezone.
  
  

• If any contact attributes are added to your 12d Synergy system, they are also displayed in the My Profile window > General tab.

  Your signature is only visible to you. If you are a 12d Synergy Administrator, you can only see if a signature has been set or not. This means you cannot view the signature.
