How do I view and edit my account details?

Your account details include your User Id, Name, Email, and Password for the system. In most cases, this information is automatically populated by your institution's student information system. However, if you have permission to change your Sakai password, this is where you would do it. You may also update your name and email address here if desired.

Note: If your Account Details are being updated automatically by your institution, changes you make may be overwritten depending on the user permissions allowed by your institution.
