Overview
Users of pulse™ are each given their own, customisable view of the pulse™ server. In addition to having a personal home page, users can also control their own settings, including user interface preferences and how and when they should be notified of build information by the pulse™ server.
Home Page Configuration
Your pulse™ home page itself is configurable. You can control the sections shown and some of the details displayed. See Home Page Configuration for details.
Customising Build Columns
Build results are displayed throughout the pulse™ interface in tabular form. The columns in these tables may be configured for each separate view by clicking the columns icon in the top right corner of the corresponding table. This will pop up the build columns customisation window, which allows visible columns to be selected with checkboxes and reordered by dragging and dropping.
Settings
Your personal settings can be accessed from the "preferences" tab. These settings are divided into the following categories:
| Category |
Description |
| basics |
Basic user details, such as your name and password. |
| aliases |
Aliases are used to match your login with SCM servers when your pulse™ login does not match. |
| settings |
User interface preferences, such as control over content auto-refreshing. |
 | Changing Passwords
To change your password, click the "edit" link in the "user" table. See the User Basics page for details. |
Contact Points and Subscriptions
Contact points and subscriptions allow you to control how and when the pulse™ server will notify you of build results. You can add an arbitrary number of contact points to define how you can be contacted (e.g. by providing an email address). You can then sign up for notifications by connecting a project with a contact point using a subscription. For more details, refer to the User Subscriptions page.
| RSS Feeds
Note that you can also subscribe to RSS Feeds for a project from any page within the project. |
