User menu

This article describes the data fields and preferences available during the registration process and in the user menu.

Registration

To initiate the creation of a new account, an Admin of the Allure TestOps instance must send an invitation to your email address.

Once you have received the invite, you need to accept it and complete the registration:

1. In the invitation email, click Accept invite.

   The registration form should open in the web browser.

   If you get the “Invitation not found” message instead, this most likely means that the invitation link has expired. Contact the instance's administrator and ask them to resend the invitation.

2. Fill in the registration form:

   • Username — a short identifier of your account. Must be unique across all accounts in the Allure TestOps instance. After the registration, you will not be able to change your username;
   • First name and Last name — your full name;
   • Password — a password that you will use to sign in to Allure TestOps.

3. Click Continue.

   You will be signed in and redirected to the page with a list of available projects.

Viewing profile

To view your profile data, click your avatar and go to the Profile section.

It contains:

• full name — your first and last name;
• role — your global role in the Allure TestOps instance: Admin, User, or Guest;
• username — the short identifier of your account, as entered during registration;
• email — the email for receiving notifications from Allure TestOps.

Allure TestOps users can change their account passwords only if they use standard username and password authentication.

You can change your password in one of two ways:

• Changing the password in your profile:

  1. Click your avatar and go to the Profile section.
  2. Click Change password.
  3. Enter your current password and a new password.
  4. Click Save.

  5. In the dialog box that opens, enter a new password twice.
  6. Click Reset password to save the changes.

Changing avatar

In the Allure TestOps test change logs, you can see your contributions, along with the display of your username and avatar. To help your colleagues quickly recognize authors of contributions, upload a unique avatar:

1. Click your avatar and go to the Profile section.

2. Click Update avatar.

3. Choose a new avatar image by selecting a file from your device.

   Keep the file size under 1 MB.

   The avatar might not update immediately because your browser may cache the old image.

Changing UI theme

The Allure TestOps interface is available in three color themes: system, light, and dark.

To change the theme:

1. Click your avatar.

2. In the Theme section, choose your preferred option from the menu:

   • Light — dark text on a light background;
   • Dark — light text on a dark background;
   • System — Allure TestOps theme will match your system theme.

Additionally, you can change the color of the navigation bars (sidebar and breadcrumb navigation) independently of the main theme (for example, use dark navigation with the light theme):

1. Click your avatar.
2. In the Navigation section, choose your preferred option from the menu.

Managing API tokens

An API token is a unique string key that an external application must use to make API requests to Allure TestOps.

Adding API token

To add an API token:

1. Click your avatar and go to the API Tokens section.

2. Click + Token.

3. Enter a name for the token (for example, a name of the service for which you are creating the token) and click Create.

   Allure TestOps will randomly generate the token and display it in a modal window.

4. Click the Copy icon to copy the token into clipboard.

5. Specify this token in the settings of the external service so that Allure TestOps can accept API requests from it.

Deleting API token

To delete an API token and revoke its access for API requests:

1. Click your avatar and go to the API Tokens section.
2. In the list, find the token you need by its name.
3. Click the Delete icon next to the token name.

Activating beta features

Allure TestOps users can activate new features that are in beta testing. These features are enabled at the user level using feature flags in the user menu and do not affect other users of the instance.

To activate a beta feature:

1. Click your avatar and go to the Feature previews section.
2. Select and activate the feature you need using the toggle (feature flag).

Features available in the Feature previews section are still in development and may not work properly. They will continue to be updated and improved until the official release.

If needed, you can deactivate a beta feature at any time to return to the regular version of Allure TestOps.
