# Managing a user's settings

> Learn how to access the settings for individual users and test data access through impersonation.

## Requirements

**Organization Admin** permissions are required to modify a user's settings.

## Accessing user settings

To access the settings for an individual user:

1. Navigate to **Settings > Users**.
2. In the user list, hover over the user you want to modify.
3. Click the **Manage** button that appears.

On the user's profile page, you'll be able to assign permissions to the user, set the user's locale and query timezone, and set user attribute values.

### Organization role

The **Organization role** setting controls the user's permissions to manage the organization. This includes the ability to invite and manage other users, manage database connections, and modify [organization settings](/administration/settings).

**Not sure what permissions to set?** Check out the [Common permissions scenarios guide](/administration/users/permissions-scenarios) to learn what permissions to set in specific scenarios, such as restricting access to datasets based on team.

### Locale

The **Locale** setting defines the language of the Omni app interface for this user.

* If a user-level locale is set, it controls the language this user sees in the app.
* If no user-level locale is set, the user inherits the organization's default locale.

For more information about organization and user-level localization, see [Localization settings](/administration/localization).

### Query timezone

The **Query timezone** setting defines the timezone used for query conversion, if user-specific timezones are enabled for a connection. Refer to the [Timezone settings guide](/connect-data/timezones) for more information.

### Personal content

When enabled, the **Allow personal content** setting allows users to save content to their [personal **My documents** folder](/content/navigate). This setting is enabled by default.

When disabled, **My documents** will be hidden in the [sidebar](/administration/settings/sidebar) and content operations will default to the organization scope.

### AI credit limit

The **AI credit limit** setting allows you to set a per-user credit limit that controls how many AI credits the user can consume. This setting provides an additional layer of control on top of [organization-level credit limits](/ai/settings/usage).

The control displays the user's effective limit — either their individual override or the organization default when no user-level limit is set. Click **Edit** to configure the limit:

* **Set a cap** — Define a specific credit limit in the **Credit limit** field
* **Unlimited** — Enable to allow unrestricted AI usage regardless of organization settings
* **Unset** — Remove any user-level override so the user inherits the organization's credit controls on save

User-level limits override organization-wide settings, allowing you to grant specific users higher limits or restrict usage on a per-user basis.

For more information about AI credits and organization-level credit controls, see [Managing AI credit usage](/ai/settings/usage).

### User attributes

User attributes, managed in the user's **Attributes** tab, allow you to map user-specific variables to operations in Omni, such as querying, dashboards, and controlling data access. Refer to the [User attributes guide](/administration/users/attributes) for more information and examples.

### Groups

The **Groups** tab lists the [user groups](/administration/users/groups) that the user is a member of. You can modify the user's group memberships directly from this tab:

* Click **Add to groups** to open a picker showing all available groups. Groups the user already belongs to are shown as disabled.
* Click **Remove from group** in a group's row to remove the user from that group. You will be prompted to confirm the removal.

For more information about managing group memberships and assigning permissions to groups, see [User groups](/administration/users/groups).

### Model Access

[Model permissions](/administration/users/permissions) determine the level of access the user has to individual models. Click on a model in the list to view more information about the user's role and abilities:

</Frame>

Use the **User role** dropdown to change the user's model role. If [custom roles](/administration/users/custom-roles) are defined, they will also appear in the dropdown list. The **Resolved Role** and **User Abilities** sections will automatically update based on your selection.

## Impersonating a user

See [Impersonating users](/administration/users/impersonate) for more information.

## Resetting introductions

If a user needs a refresher on Omni's latest features, you can use the **Reset introductions** button at the bottom of their settings page.

This will reactivate any previously dismissed feature introductions - specifically, the tooltips that highlight updates - that display in the app:
