- Company Name
Use the name teammates and customers should recognize. Updating it also changes the workspace name shown around Sonny.
- Timezone
Choose where your team works. Sonny uses this for time-based behavior such as snooze times and the widget's office-hours schedule.
- Default Email Signature
Set the workspace-wide fallback for outgoing email replies. Channel and personal signatures can override it.
- Notification Emails
Enter an email address and select the plus button to add it. Select the remove button beside an address when it should no longer be listed.
For signature precedence, variables, and examples, use the Email signatures guide.
Save or discard changes
The change bar appears after you edit a setting. Select Save changes to keep everything in the bar, or Discard to restore the last saved values. Finish or discard your changes before leaving the page.
