Account Settings¶
Account settings control your personal profile, authentication, and API access. These settings apply to your individual account across all teams you belong to.
Profile Settings¶
Update your basic account information:
- Name -- Your display name shown in team member lists and activity logs
- Email -- Your login email and the address used for notifications and invitations
To update your profile:
- Click your profile in the Appliku dashboard
- Go to Account Settings
- Update your name or email
- Save changes
Password Management¶
Change your account password:
- Go to Account Settings
- Navigate to the Password section
- Enter your current password
- Enter and confirm your new password
- Save
Tip
Use a strong, unique password. Consider using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords.
Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)¶
Add an extra layer of security to your account with two-factor authentication. When enabled, you must provide a time-based one-time password (TOTP) from an authenticator app in addition to your password when logging in.
Enabling 2FA¶
- Go to Account Settings
- Navigate to the Two-Factor Authentication section
- Click Enable 2FA
- Scan the QR code with your authenticator app (e.g., Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password)
- Enter the verification code from your app to confirm
- Save your recovery codes in a secure location
Warning
Store your recovery codes safely. If you lose access to your authenticator app and do not have recovery codes, you will be locked out of your account.
Disabling 2FA¶
- Go to Account Settings > Two-Factor Authentication
- Click Disable 2FA
- Confirm with your current password or TOTP code
API Token Management¶
API tokens allow programmatic access to the Appliku API. They are used by the Appliku CLI and for custom integrations.
Creating an API Token¶
- Go to Account Settings
- Navigate to the API Tokens section
- Click Create Token
- Give the token a descriptive name (e.g., "CLI access", "CI/CD pipeline")
- Copy the token immediately -- it is only shown once
Using Your API Token¶
With the Appliku CLI:
# Set as environment variable
export APPLIKU_TOKEN=your-token-here
appliku apps list
# Or save to config file
appliku auth login
The CLI resolves tokens in this order:
1. Explicit parameter passed to the command
2. APPLIKU_TOKEN environment variable
3. Config file at ~/.config/appliku/config.toml
With the API directly:
Revoking a Token¶
- Go to Account Settings > API Tokens
- Find the token you want to revoke
- Click Delete
- The token is immediately invalidated
Note
Revoking a token immediately breaks any integrations using it. Update your CLI configuration or CI/CD pipelines before revoking tokens that are in active use.
Notification Settings¶
Use Account Settings > Notifications to connect personal notification channels. Telegram deployment notifications are configured here because they are attached to your user account, not to a single team.
After connecting Telegram, choose whether to receive deployment notifications for all teams, selected teams, or no teams while keeping the bot connected. You may also see a dismissible banner on application overview pages that links directly to this Notifications tab.
Deleting Your Account¶
You can delete your own account from Account Settings > Delete Account. Deletion is not immediate: it is scheduled with a 24 hour recovery window so an accidental or unauthorized request can be undone.
When you confirm deletion:
- Your account is scheduled for deletion 24 hours in the future.
- A recovery email with a recovery link is sent to your email address.
- A persistent warning appears in Account Settings while the deletion is pending.
After the 24 hour window passes:
- Your personal data is removed and your account is deactivated.
- You are removed from every team you belong to.
- Any empty team you are the sole owner of is deleted.
Cancelling or recovering a deletion¶
- Cancel: While the deletion is pending, open Account Settings > Delete Account and click Cancel Deletion.
- Recover by email: Open the recovery link from the email at any time before the scheduled deletion.
- Support: If you did not request the deletion or need help, contact
support@appliku.com.
When deletion is blocked¶
Account deletion is blocked when you are the sole owner of a team that still has other members or active resources (applications, databases, or servers). The dashboard shows which team is blocking the deletion. To proceed, delete those teams first or add another owner to them. Appliku does not shut down or destroy resources on your servers during team or account deletion; it only removes Appliku's records and stops managing/monitoring them.
