User Preference
A user can specify personalized customizations that are automatically applied to workspaces in their own sandboxes. These preferences include:
- The default Personal Snapshot
- Additional environment variables
- File injections
Managing Preferences
To configure preferences, from the Web Console:
- Click the user avatar icon in the top-right corner.
- Select Preference from the menu.
Multiple Setups
A user can create multiple Setups under their preferences. Each setup can optionally include template matchers, so the setup is applied only when a sandbox is created from a matching template.
This allows different customizations for different project types — for example, a setup with specific environment variables for frontend projects and a different setup for backend services.
What Can Be Customized
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Default Personal Snapshot | The personal snapshot applied automatically to all new workspaces |
| Environment variables | Additional env vars injected into workspaces |
| File injections | Files injected into the workspace filesystem |
