This expands a menu with several items you can modify or use when you are logged into Brightspot.

The user menu has several options available to you that are specific to your Brightspot user account.

Using the above image as a reference, here are the options available to you from the user menu:

  • Profile—Opens your user profile where you can set your user options for how Brightspot looks and behaves for you. See Configuring your profile for more information.
