Settings is the administration area for connections, metadata, synchronization, backups, diagnostics, and maintenance.

Each top-level Settings group has its own guide. Open a group below, then use the right-hand page outline to jump between the sections on that page.

Working in Settings

Plekt Settings landing page used to make and verify one configuration change
Make one settings change at a time, wait for completion, and verify it in the affected page or Sync Activity.

Make one change at a time. Wait for the save or operation status to finish, then verify the result in the affected app view or in Sync Activity.

For destructive maintenance and recovery actions, create a backup first and review the operation scope before confirming it. Use Troubleshooting when a setting, connection, or maintenance operation does not behave as expected.
