# My Profile

### Overview

Profile settings define how a Teammate appears across Projects.

Accurate profile fields improve collaboration and auditability.

### Key Concepts

* **Display name**: appears in assignments, comments, and mentions
* **Profile photo**: improves recognition in people pickers
* **Security settings**: sign-in and authentication controls (when enabled)

### How It’s Used

Use profile settings during onboarding.

Update profile settings when a name, role, or security policy changes.

### Benefits

* Faster recognition during reviews and handoffs
* Cleaner audit history with stable identity details
* Reduced sign-in risk when security controls are enabled

### Setup Steps

Use the full setup guide:

* [My Profile Configuration](/getting-started/profile-configuration.md)

### Best Practices

* Use a stable display name for audit continuity.
* Avoid storing sensitive information in profile fields.
* Prefer SSO-managed identity fields as the source of truth when enabled.

### Summary

Profile settings control identity fields used across collaboration and audit history.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.transform.ai/user-settings/my-profile.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
