Import your settings
When you create a Zulip account using an email address already associated with an account in another Zulip organization, on Zulip Cloud or the same self-hosted Zulip installation, you can import your user settings from an existing account. It’s a convenient way to preserve the user settings that you’ve already customized.
The import will include your:
- Name and profile picture.
- Preferences, such as the theme, font size, emoji set, and language you have configured.
- Privacy settings, which include whether you let others see when you are typing or if you have read a message.
- Notification settings, which include default notifications for channels, notifications for topics you follow, and the sound used for audible desktop notifications.
