In the BIMcollab ecosystem, there are two different kinds of accounts.
Your BIMcollab ID
An overarching, personal account, which contains your personal information. For more information, consult the article My BIMcollab ID.Space account
An account specific to the private BIMcollab space you have been added to.
Space account
A Space account is specific to each private BIMcollab space you are part of.
It contains information such as your name and initials, which can be edited by both you and the space administrator. This data is managed by the space administrator, with the exception of the language setting, which is personal and can only be changed by you.
If you are a member of multiple private BIMcollab spaces, you will have a separate Space account for each one, meaning your details may vary between them.
A Space account is automatically created for you when you are added to a private BIMcollab space.
