User profiles are used in many parts of the platform to identify the logged-on user. You can view your own user profile by selecting the user icon in the horizontal menu at the top of the SAP Analytics Cloud screen.
When you select a user in any dialog, the picture from the user profile displays in addition to the display name and ID. You can access your profile and edit user preferences from the Profile Settings dialog.
Profile Picture: By default, a photo placeholder is displayed. To upload your own picture from your computer, choose Upload Profile Picture.
User Preferences: To change any of the default settings, select the edit icon.
You can choose the default language for the SAP Analytics Cloud interface. The Data Access Language option sets the preferred language for displaying live data and text in stories. If the Data Access Language is set to Default, the value used in the Language setting will be used. The setting is used by default unless an administrator selects a different language when the live data connection is created.
You can also change the formatting for dates, numbers, currency position, and other options.
Passwords: If you use SAP Cloud Identity (ID), your profile information will be pulled from your SAP Cloud ID profile. To edit your SAP Cloud ID profile, go to Edit Profile & Change Password at Profile Settings in that system. If you are using authentication via a SAML Identity Provider (IdP) or connecting with the Identity Authentication service, choose Change Password at Edit Profile. The Password section appears as an option in your user profile. Choose Change Password to redirect to the password change page.
