Account Type
You can log into Terminus Space using either a DID or a Terminus Name. However, the features and services available on Terminus Space will vary based on the account type
.
DID:
When you log in with this account type, you cannot create a Terminus until you bind a Terminus Name. However, you have the option to set your own domain because no domain has been bound yet.Terminus Name:
When you log in with this account type, you should be able to create a Terminus, unless your Terminus Name is already bound to another Terminus. However, you will not be able to set your own domain, as the Terminus Name is already associated with a domain.
Manage Multiple Accounts
Each Terminus Name can be bound to just one Terminus. With Multi-account Management in Terminus Space, you can easily switch between accounts. This is handy if you own multiple Terminus Names and Terminus instances.
To add an account:
- Click the avatar in the top-right corner.
- Select Import Account from the pop-up menu.
- Scan the QR code to log in.
Once you've added several accounts, you can switch between them using the 'Switch Account' option in the pop-up menu. If the account you're switching to is logged out, you'll be redirected to the QR code login page.
Log Out
To log out of your account:
- Click your avatar in the top-right corner.
- Click Log Out.
Alternatively, you can:
- Choose Switch Account from the menu.
- Press the Exit icon next to any listed account.
