Applies toBandArtist profileRequiresAdmin

Band settings holds the settings of the band you are working in: its accent color, its members and invites, its storage and the integrations it uses. In an artist profile the group is called Workspace settings and holds the items that apply there.

Open Band settings

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Under Band settings, select Accent color, Members and invites, Storage or Integrations.

Only an Admin sees this group. The items apply to the band you are working in, not to your other bands. In an artist profile the items are Accent color, Storage and Integrations; Members and invites is only available in a band. The group also holds Manage band account, described in Manage band account.

Accent color

ControlWhat it does
