# How to Update Team Member Profile Details

DoubleTick allows authorised users to update a team member's profile information directly from the Team section — including their display name, login email, and phone number.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Who Can Use This Feature?**</mark>

Any team member with the **Edit Team Member Details** permission can update another member's profile. Owners have this permission enabled by default and can grant it to other roles from the Roles settings.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**How to Access a Team Member's Profile**</mark>

1. Click **Team** from the left navigation bar.
2. Click on the team member's name whose profile you want to update. The **Member Profile** panel will open on the right side of your screen.
3. Under the **Details** tab, go to the **Basic Information** section. This displays the member's current email address and phone number.

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**What You Can Edit**</mark>

**Display Name**

1. Click the **edit icon** next to the member's name at the top of the profile panel.
2. The **Edit Name** dialog will open with the current name pre-filled.
3. Update the name and click **Save Changes**.

OTP verification is not required for display name changes.

**Login Email**

1. Click the **edit icon** next to the Email field under Basic Information.
2. The **Change Login Email** dialog will open.
3. Click **Send OTP.** A one-time password will be sent to the member's currently registered email address.
4. Enter the OTP to verify, then enter the new email address to complete the change.

**Login Phone Number**

1. Click the **edit icon** next to the Phone field under Basic Information.
2. The **Change Login Phone Number** dialog will open.
3. Click **Send OTP.** A one-time password will be sent to the member's currently registered phone number.
4. Enter the OTP to verify, then enter the new phone number to complete the change.

OTP verification is mandatory when changing a member's login email or phone number. This ensures account security and prevents unauthorised changes.

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Controlling Whether Members Can Edit Their Own Profile**</mark>

Owners can control whether team members are allowed to edit their own profile details using the **Edit Own Profile** permission. This permission is enabled for all roles by default.

When this permission is on, a member can update their own name, email, phone number, and primary WhatsApp account from their profile in Settings. When it is turned off, the member's profile becomes view-only — only an Owner or a user with the **Edit Team Member Details** permission can make changes on their behalf.

**To manage this permission:**

1. Click **Settings** in the left navigation bar.
2. Select **Roles** from the Settings menu.
3. Click on the role you want to configure.
4. Scroll to the **Team Members Management** section.
5. Check or uncheck the **Edit Own Profile** permission as needed.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://learn.doubletick.io/teams/how-to-update-team-member-profile-details.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
