Your account
These settings are yours alone. Nothing here affects your organization or the people in it.
Two-factor authentication
Section titled “Two-factor authentication”Add a second step to your sign-in using an authenticator app.
If your organization requires two-factor authentication, you will be told so here, and you may have been given a window to set it up rather than being locked out on the spot. Do it early in that window. The alternative is doing it under time pressure on the day it expires.
If you sign in through your organization’s identity provider, this does not apply to you. That check has already happened, and Taiga does not ask you to do it twice.
API keys
Section titled “API keys”API keys connect external tools to Taiga. Today that means your editor: Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf and anything else that speaks MCP.
Create a key, give it a name that says what it is for, and choose whether it expires.
Copy it immediately. The key is shown once, at creation, and never again. If you lose it, revoke it and create another. There is no way to recover the original.
Two habits worth having:
- Name keys after the machine or tool, not after yourself. “Work laptop” tells you what to revoke when the laptop is lost. “My key” does not.
- Set an expiration unless you have a specific reason not to. A key that expires is a key you cannot forget about.
Revoking a key takes effect immediately and cannot be undone.
Notifications
Section titled “Notifications”Agent work takes long enough that you will do something else while it runs, which is the problem these settings solve.
Three independent cues for when an agent finishes:
- A short chime.
- A flash of the browser tab title, so you can spot completed work from another tab.
- A system notification from your operating system.
Pick whichever suits how you work. The tab flash is the least intrusive and the most reliable if you keep Taiga open in a background tab.
Profile and appearance
Section titled “Profile and appearance”Your name and details, and whether the interface follows your system theme or a fixed light or dark setting.
