Managing Accounts#

This page provides information on how to manage an existing GNOME account.

Change email address#

The email address associated with your GNOME account is used for your gnome.org email alias, as well as notifications related to the account. To change the account email address:

  • Login to GitLab.

  • In your GitLab profile email settings, set the secondary email address to the one you want to use for your GNOME account.

  • Open an account request issue:

    • Set the title to “Account request” (case insensitive).

    • Using natural language, state that you want your email address to be updated. For example: “Please update my e-mail” will work.

Change password#

To change your GNOME account password, use the page at password.gnome.org.

Change your name or other personal details#

The personal details associated with your GNOME account can be changed at idm.gnome.org.

Manage two-factor authentication#

A two-factor authentication app, such as Authenticator, is required when signing in with the GNOME single sign-on service (GNOME SSO). To set up or delete apps, go to the Keycloak account security settings.
