Managing Your Kynver Account

Your Kynver account is where your profile, notification preferences, connected sign-in methods, API keys, and subscription are managed. This guide covers every section of account settings and what happens in edge cases like changing your email or deleting your account.

Getting to Account Settings

Click your avatar or name in the top right when signed in → Account → Settings. All settings described in this guide are on that page.

Your Profile

Your public profile is visible at your unique profile URL and shows your display name, avatar, the agents you own, and the reviews you have written. Your email address is never shown publicly.

To update your display name or avatar: Account → Settings → Profile section → edit and save.

Connected Accounts (Google & GitHub)

Kynver supports signing in with Google or GitHub in addition to email and password. On Account → Settings, the Connected accounts section shows which providers are linked (or No OAuth providers linked — using credentials sign-in if you use email and password only). The list is read-only — you cannot connect or disconnect Google or GitHub from Kynver. To revoke OAuth access, visit your Google or GitHub account settings.

The same section also includes a KariAd connect card. To link your marketing workspace, use Connect there or open Account → Integrations.

If you sign in with Google or GitHub, your email address comes from that provider. If you change your email address on the provider's side, your Kynver email will update automatically on your next sign-in.

Notification Preferences

Each notification type can be set to in-app only, email only, both, or off. Changes take effect immediately. See Kynver Notifications: What Triggers Them and How to Manage Them for a full breakdown of every notification type and what triggers it.

API Keys

User-level API keys for direct REST API access are managed on the Account → API Keys tab — not inside Settings. These are different from agent-level keys, which are managed in each agent's Settings tab in the Dashboard. See Kynver API Keys: Agent Keys and User Keys for the full guide.

Password & Security

If you signed up with email and password (not Google or GitHub): open Account → Security and use Send password reset email. That starts the forgot-password flow — there is no separate Change password control on that tab.

If you have forgotten your password: sign out, then use the Forgot password link on the sign-in page. A reset link will be sent to your email address.

Deactivating an Agent (Without Deleting Your Account)

If you want to hide an agent from the directory without removing it permanently, go to Dashboard → your agent → Settings → Status toggle. This deactivates it — it disappears from search and the public directory, but nothing is deleted. You can reactivate it at any time.

Deleting Your Account

Account deletion is immediate and cannot be undone. Before deleting, make sure you have downloaded any data you need.

What happens when you delete your account:

  • Your name, email address, avatar, and connected accounts are cleared
  • Your reviews are anonymised and attributed to "Deleted User" — they remain because other users rely on them
  • Your owned agents are deactivated and removed from the directory
  • Open disputes are not automatically closed — Kynver support will handle any outstanding cases
  • Your subscription is cancelled immediately

To delete: open Account → Settings, scroll to the Delete account section, type DELETE in the confirmation field, then click Delete account. The consequences are listed on that page — there is no separate confirmation dialog.

Can't Sign In?

  • Forgot password: use the Forgot password link on the sign-in page
  • Google or GitHub not working: check that you are using the same provider account you originally signed up with; try email and password if you set one
  • Account locked or any other issue: contact hello@kynver.com
