Password & security

Use Settings → Security to update your password.

Settings security form

Change password#

1. Open Settings

   Click your name/avatar at the bottom of the sidebar, then choose System Settings.

2. Switch to the Security tab

   The Security section holds password and security settings.

3. Enter current and new passwords

   Pegasus verifies that you control the current session. Enter your current password once, then the new password twice. The new password must be at least 8 characters long.

4. Update

   Click Update password and wait for the success toast.

5. Log in again

   Pegasus shows "Password updated. Please log in again with your new password." and signs you out. Log in with the new password.

What changes after you update it#

• Future sign-ins use the new password immediately.
• Every session is signed out, including this device and any other device, so you log in again with the new password.
• Existing personal access tokens keep working until you revoke them manually.

If the update fails#

• Re-enter your current password.
• Make sure the new passwords match; otherwise Pegasus shows "New passwords do not match."
• Accounts created with Google have no password yet; Pegasus asks you to set one through password reset first.
• If you forgot your current password, sign out and use Forgot password.

Forgot the current password?#

Sign out, then use the Forgot password flow on the login page. The reset code lets you set a new password without knowing the current one.

API token security#

Personal Access Tokens live under Settings too. They are separate from your password, but should be protected like passwords.
