User requests
Users can "request" access to a given organization. If a developer on your team has access to Cypress and your project's source code - they can request to be given access to your organization. This means instead of you having to invite team members up front, they can request access and you can choose to accept or deny them access.
User updates
Changes can be made to both the primary email address associated with your Cypress Cloud account and the email address for billing notifications.
For updating the primary email address associated with Cypress Cloud, click your Profile picture in the upper left corner of the Organizations page. Select Manage Profile. Go to the Email field and select your preferred email address. Note: The email list is limited to emails provided by login provider.
If you would like to update the billing email address, that can be done via the Billing & Usage page within Cypress Cloud or you contact them directly at billing@cypress.io.
