Last updated: March 6, 2026
Account Settings is where administrators manage the technical and organizational configuration of their Bridgit account. This includes setting up service accounts for integrations and configuring account-wide preferences like localization and custom terminology.
Eligibility/Prerequisites
Access to Account Settings requires administrator-level permissions. If you do not see the Settings option in your top navigation bar, you do not have the required access level.
Note: If your account has an active integration, contact your Customer Success Manager before making changes in Account Settings.
How to Use
Accessing Account Settings
Select the Settings icon in the top right navigation bar
Navigate to the Account section in the left sidebar

Service Accounts
Service accounts are non-human user accounts used to authenticate to the Bridgit bench API. Each service account is assigned a unique identifier, password, and a permission group that controls what the service account can access.
Creating a Service Account
Navigate to Settings > Account > Service Accounts
Select Add service account in the top right corner
Enter a Name for the service account
Select a Permission Group from the dropdown
Click Save
Username and password will be shown with the option to apply IP Whitelisting.
Note: After creation, service accounts can have a password re-set or IP Whitelisting added. Name and permission group are fixed.
Basic Settings
Basic Settings contains account-wide configuration options including your organization's display name, logo, localization preferences, and custom terminology.
