Complete guide to administering and configuring your Atlan workspace, from basic settings to advanced customization.

### How do I change my Atlan URL?

To change the URL of your Atlan instance, [contact Atlan support](https://docs.atlan.com/support/submit-request). Requests for instances hosted on Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform may take longer to complete.

If you use [integrated SSO](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/governance/access-control/sso/llms.txt) in Atlan, ask your SSO administrator to reconfigure the Atlan URL in your SSO provider to maintain connectivity.

### How can I change the workspace name?

You must be an admin user to be able to change the name of your Atlan workspace.

To update the workspace name:

1. In your Atlan workspace, click **Settings** from the left menu.
 * If you are using the **Old UI (Classic)**, from the left menu, click **Admin**.
2. In the *Overview* tab, under *Workspace name*, click the pencil icon to edit the workspace name.
3. In the Workspace name dialog, enter a name for your Atlan workspace and then click **Update**.

For example, you can use the name of your organization to customize your Atlan workspace. After you update the name, the change is visible to all your Atlan users.

### How can I add my own branding?

To add your own logo to Atlan, any admin user can go to the _Admin Center_ and click the image in the _Overview_ section to upload a new logo. Atlan resizes the logo automatically, maintaining its aspect ratio.

Atlan recommends that you use the following size and format for your logo:

- A logo with a 1:1 aspect ratio
- In either PNG or JPEG format
- With a size of 150x150 pixels

### I am having issues editing a persona, purpose, or policy

If you have the [Admin role](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/governance/access-control/delegate-administration/llms.txt) (or another role that grants edit access) but still can't modify a persona, purpose, or policy, check the name of the item you are trying to change. Names can't include special characters such as `\\`, `*`, and similar symbols. Dashes (`-`) are allowed.

If the name already contains unsupported characters, or you continue to encounter errors after correcting the name, please [raise a support ticket](https://docs.atlan.com/support/submit-request).

### How do I access audit logs?

Open any asset's [activity log](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/discovery/faq/llms.txt) and audit all activity by using the `auditSearch` API. Configure the request with your preferred filters—such as time range or action type—to retrieve the audit records you need.

### Can restricting access to certain assets impact the lineage view?

[Access control policies](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/governance/access-control/what-are-purposes/llms.txt) don't change which assets appear in the [lineage graph](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/catalog/lineage/view-lineage/llms.txt). If an asset is restricted, its properties and attributes are simply hidden in the asset sidebar. The metadata policy assigned to each user determines which asset metadata they can view.
