Profile image and user name

The profile image, first name, and last name associated with a HubSpot user can only be changed by the user themselves, or a super admin who logs in as the user only if that user is on one HubSpot account. Otherwise, users cannot make edits to other users' names, even if they have the Add and edit users permission

If you're looking to update your user email address, check out HubSpot's guide on changing your email address.

To change your profile image and user name:

  • Click your current profile image, then select from the available options:
    • To upload a new image from your computer, select Upload image. Then select your image and use the slider to adjust the image size so that it fits in the circle. To save your changes, click Save.
    • To use a Gravatar photo, select Use Gravatar. If you don't have a Gravatar photo yet, you can click Set up Gravatar photo to add one. Learn more about Gravatar
    • To remove the current avatar image, select Remove image.

Default Home Page

Customize the sprocket icon sprocket in the top left corner of your account to navigate to a specific area of HubSpot. This will also set the page that loads when you log in to the account. Default home pages are set per user per account, so you can customize your home page in each account that you're a user in without affecting other users.

To set your default home page, click the Default Home Page dropdown menu, then select a product area. Your changes will automatically save, but may take a couple minutes to take effect.
