How to add and remove a repository's personas

Create a persona on a connected repository, with the name, state notes and sign-in credentials a flow uses, and delete a persona you no longer need. For anyone in a DynoDocs organization who manages a connected repository.

A persona stands for a real account in the product your repository builds, along with the state that account is in, so flows can sign in as it when they run. Because the account belongs to that product, personas live on the repository rather than on your organization as a whole, and you manage them from the repository's page in DynoDocs settings.

Open a repository's personas

From your dashboard, click Settings in the top navigation.

The New Persona dialog opens. In Name, type something your team will recognise at a glance, such as the plan or role the account represents.
Step screenshot
In State notes, describe the account state this persona stands for, so anyone picking it later knows what they are getting: the plan it is on, for example, or which integrations it does and does not have set up.

Fill in Login email with the email address this account signs in with, and Password with that account's password.

Prerequisites

  • A repository already connected to your DynoDocs organization
  • The login email and password of the account the persona will sign in as

Troubleshooting

  • The delete dialog warns that flows are using the persona: those flows sign in as it, so pick a replacement persona for them before you confirm.
