You can perform the following actions using the buttons at the top of the navigation pane:
Switch between domains
The green icon to the left of your user name allows you to switch between domains, in case you have access to more than one.
Select the star next to a domain name to make it the default one each time you log in to your account. If you have access to multiple domains but have not selected a default one, you will be prompted to select a domain when logging in.
Change the timezone
You can select the timezone of your domain. To do so, click the timezone displayed under your user name.
The following table describes the settings in the Configure Timezone window:
| Set timezone automatically | Select this option to use the timezone set by your browser. |
|---|---|
Set timezone manually | Choose the timezone from the drop-down list or by clicking the desired region on the map. |
After selecting one of the options, you can:
- Click the Apply only to this session button to use the selected timezone only during the current session. The previous timezone will be set the next time you log in to your domain.
- Click Save to set the timezone selected as the default one for your domain.
Change the query priority
Not all queries are of equal importance, and often assigning a higher priority to heavy queries might be required in order to prioritize them. The query priority determines the number of resources allocated to a query, and you can choose it using the dropdown selector under your user information.
Learn more in Query priority.
This feature is only visible for users with the required role permissions. Learn more about users, roles and permissions here.
