Question

Change my account email address

In the past I know that it was not possible to change the email address of an ST account.
I use a personal address to be independent of my changes of employers.

But now ST requires a commercial email address to participate in webinars.

In the same way you impose a commercial address to order on ST eStore.

Since ST has tightened its policy regarding email addresses, it becomes imperative to be able to update them.

The alternative is to create a "fake" account for each use... I did it but I receive triple notifications and announcements!

So how do I change the email address used by my account?

    Hello @t.decker and @Gaston

    I understand the frustration and inconvenience caused by this circumstance. Unfortunately, there is no easy fix. We are trying to see with our platform provider if there is a way to migrate the account history. Please send me a private message with the details of your old and new community account as well as the community account details that you would hope to see transferred over.

    Best,

    Amelie

    STM uses the product of a supplier who boasts of being "World's #1 AI CRM provider": Salesforce.

    It turns out that this software has been failing for several years, and that Salesforce is unable to offer solutions: regarding the management of email addresses it seems that there is a fairly deep design flaw (which leads STM to suggests tinkering piecemeal as in the post above).

    It's time for STM to take a big hit and force Salesforce to correct the problems. Or change supplier, a difficult decision to make but which would be beneficial in the long term, and undoubtedly even financially advantageous.

    Hello @MS.9 , 

    Unfortunately, this option is still not possible. 

    If you need to use a new email address, you will need to create a new account. 

    Regards,
