Baalda

Settings reference

Every tab in Vault Settings and what it controls, plus what the account menu carries.


Vault Settings is one dialog with a left-hand menu. Which tabs appear depends on whether the vault is synced and whether the server has billing configured. Owners and admins see the management controls, and a plain member sees the same pages read-only.

The tabs

TabWhat it holds
GeneralThe identity of the open vault: its name, its folder, its sync state, and Turn on sync and sharing when it is still local
VaultsEvery vault on the account, with its state, and the danger zone actions: make local only, leave, delete, Reset local copy
Members and accessThe roster, invitations, roles, the Everyone and New members rows, and each person's access and activity
BillingPlan and seats. It appears only when the server has billing configured
MCPThe endpoint URL for this server, the tokens you have minted, the tools each connection can reach, and Revoke
VersioningVersion history settings for the vault
Import / ExportBringing notes in, and taking them out
AppearanceTheme, content width, text size and the editor's line-number gutter
The AI (Beta) page, which held Baalda Assistant and the vault check tools, is hidden in 0.1.82. The documentation leaves it out rather than describing a page nobody can open.

Tabs that need sync

Members and access, MCP, Versioning and Billing all describe a Remote Vault, so on a local-only vault they point back to General and its Turn on sync and sharing button rather than showing empty pages.

The account menu

  • Sign in and out, and the server the account belongs to, under Connection.
  • Switch vault, which also opens on hover over the vault name or path in the sidebar.
  • Pending invitations, and sending a bug report.
  • Check for updates, with the version you are running.

This page is written from app/apps/desktop/src/components/VaultSettingsDialog.tsx and docs/RELEASE_NOTES.md in the repository. Those documents go further, and they are the ones that change first.
