Change someone's email, see their activity

On Admin → Users, admins can change the email of anyone in their company. Platform admins can do the same from Platform → All users.

  1. Click Change email on the person’s row.
  2. In “Change email for …”, type the New email and press Send confirmation.
  3. You see “Confirmation sent to” the new address. The email changes when the link is clicked. It works once and lasts 24 hours.
  4. Press Copy link if you’d rather send it yourself, then Done.

Their old email keeps working until the link is clicked. After it, the new one signs in and shows Email confirmed.

If email isn’t set up, you see “Email is off — copy the link and send it yourself.” Copy the link and send it.

  1. Click Activity on the person’s row.
  2. “Activity for …” lists the newest first, each with who and when: Password changed, Password set, Password reset link sent, Password reset, Email change asked, Email changed from … to …, Email confirmed. An empty list says “Nothing yet.”
