Your account
Creating an account, signing in and out, changing your password, and what to do if you are locked out.
Create an account
Go to Create account and enter an email address and a password. A name is optional. The free plan needs no payment details.
- Passwords must be at least 10 characters.
- One account per email address. If the address is already registered you will be asked to sign in instead.
- You are signed in straight away and land on your dashboard.
Sign in and out
Sign in at Sign in. Your session lasts 30 days on that browser. Use Sign out at the bottom of the sidebar to end it sooner.
Change your password
Open the account menu (your name at the bottom of the sidebar), choose Settings, enter your current password and a new one (10 characters or more), and press Update password.
Changing your password signs you out of every other browser and device. Your API keys keep working.
Forgot your password
SkilVault does not send email, so password recovery is handled by the operator of your SkilVault deployment. It takes a few steps:
- Ask for a resetOn the sign-in page choose Forgot password?, enter your email and press Request reset. You will always see the same confirmation, whether or not the address has an account.
- Wait for your linkAn operator sees your request, checks it is really you, and sends you a one-time reset link by whatever channel you already use with them. Contact them if you have not heard back.
- Choose a new passwordOpen the link and set a new password. The link works once and expires after 30 minutes.
Your data
You can ask the operator to export or delete your account at any time. Deleting an account removes its keys immediately. What is collected and for how long is described in Security & privacy and on the Legal page.
