The Settings menu in Compute with Hivenet lets you adjust your preferences, manage SSH keys, and request account deletion. Here’s what you can do.

​
Accessing settings

Click on the hamburger menu next to your avatar (⋮). From here, you can manage the following options:
  • Settings
    • SSH: Add or update your SSH key.
    • Delete account: Submit a request to delete your account.
  • Theme: Switch between System, Light, and Dark modes.
  • Language: Choose between available interface languages.

​
Theme

You can choose how the interface looks:
  • System: Matches your operating system’s theme.
  • Light: Bright background with dark text.
  • Dark: Dark background with light text.
This setting affects only the appearance of the Compute interface.

​
Language

You can switch the interface language at any time. Currently supported:
  • English
  • French
Language choice affects the UI only. It doesn’t change your account details or technical settings.

​
SSH key

Your SSH key is used to securely access every new instance you deploy.
  • To update your key, paste a new value into the SSH field and click Modify.
  • The key will automatically apply to all future instances.
Replacing your SSH key will not affect existing running instances. Update keys manually on those servers if needed.

​
Delete account

You can request to permanently delete your Compute account.
  • Click Request to delete account to submit your request.
  • Account deletion is irreversible.
  • Any unused credits will be lost.
Deleted accounts cannot be recovered. Make sure you’ve withdrawn any important data and used up your credits before submitting your request.
