Account Preferences

Default Account Zone

Zones allow you to optimize the environments preformance. The default zone operates as the defaulted selection when users embark on creating new environments within their accounts. This refined approach eradicates the repetitive task of manually selecting a zone, promoting efficiency, and a user-friendly interface that adapts to individual preferences and operational requirements.

Account settings

To set a Zone as your default zone for your account, you’ll first need to access the Account window using the button on the top right part of the main screen, right beside the plan tag. Once in the Account window, navigate to the Settings tab which is located in the top part. In the Settings tab, you’ll find a Zones section with a dropdown selector that indicates the current default. Click on the dropdown to change to the zone that you wish to set as the default . This new zone will be your default whenever you log into your account.
