# Quickstart for Staff Members

## **Welcome to Kitehouse!**

For account security, you'll need to change your password when you first log into Kitehouse.
{% hint style="info" %}
We recommend choosing a password that is hard to guess but easy for you to remember.
Avoid using personal information, such as your birthday, or reusing the same password across multiple accounts.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}

### Change your Preferences
When you first sign into Kitehouse, you can click your account photo found on the upper-left corner of the app and clicking the option called :gears: **Account**.
Under **Account Settings**, you can upload a new profile photo.
Under **Preferences**, you can:
* **Enable Push Notifications**
* **Use Colour Blind patterns** to distinguish colours in the site.
* **Use Mail Links** when sending an email instead of copying their email address to your clipboard.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
And that's the end! As always, you can go back to our [**Staff Guide**](/docs/staff/dashboard.md) if you need help with any of features found in Kitehouse.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://kitehouse.co.uk/docs/getting-started/staff.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
