Your application's settings
What each tab of Settings is for, and the General tab — the application's language, currency and time zone, and whether Divvent may keep what you type.
Settings is where the less frequent configuration of an application lives. Open an application, then choose Settings in the menu. It opens on the General tab.
The tabs
You only see the tabs your role may open.
- General: the application's name, language, currency and time zone, and two things only an owner decides. See General below.
- Integrations: connect and disconnect other services, such as Stripe. See Connect other services.
- Domains: use your own web address for the application. See Use your own domain.
- Privacy: what the application keeps about people, and erasing one person. See Privacy: what is kept about people, and erasing someone.
- Import: bring your existing records in from a spreadsheet. See Import your existing records.
- Health: problems the application has had, and what it refused. See Health and Activity.
- Backups: the application's backups, and restoring data. See Backups and restoring your data.
- Activity: everything that has happened to the application, newest first. See Health and Activity.
- Your users' sign-in: help for the people who use your application, and handing the application to a new owner. Owners only. This is never your own sign-in, which is under Your sign-in at the top of the page. See Your users' sign-in.
- Export: take a copy of the application and its data. Owners only. See Export your application and your data.
General
The top of the tab lists the application's Name, Short name (the name in its web addresses), Language, Money and Time. You chose these when you made the application. See Create your first application.
Change the language, currency or time zone
These can't be changed with a switch on this page. Changing one changes how every date and every amount in the application is read, so it is a change like any other:
- Open Changes.
- Say what should be different, for example: "Our prices should be in euros from now on" or "We've moved to Dublin; use Irish time."
- Read the change that comes back, and approve it.
It goes live when you release the version it makes. See Ask for a change and Release a version.
The web address name can't be changed.
Helping us improve the AI
This asks whether Divvent may keep what you type into this application's Changes box, to make its suggestions better. The page shows the exact words you agree to:
- It is off until an owner turns it on, and it is decided separately for each application.
- Only an owner can press Turn this on or Turn this off. Everyone else sees whether it is on, and who last decided.
- Nothing typed before it was turned on is kept.
- Turning it off stops anything more being kept from then on. It doesn't remove sentences kept while it was on.
- If we ever change the words, it shows needs re-agreeing and is treated as off until an owner presses Agree to the new wording.
Platform updates: rehearsing on your live data
This part only appears if one of your company's applications holds information about children or health, or is on a regulated profile. It is one answer for the whole company.
Before a platform update reaches your live application, Divvent rehearses it on made-up data. With your agreement, the rehearsal also tries the update's database changes on a sealed copy of your live data, which is deleted a few minutes later. The page shows the full wording, and an owner chooses Allow a sealed copy of our live data or Use made-up data only. Until an owner answers, updates are rehearsed on made-up data only. You can change the answer at any time. See Platform updates.
