Things to do on your first day
  1. Update your profile
Personalize Lark to help others find you. Click your profile photo in the upper-left corner to change your name, profile photo, and bio.
Note: If you can't change your name or profile photo, it's likely because an administrator has restricted modifications. If you need to make changes, contact an administrator.
