When Pega Community members move from one organization to another and register using a new email address, a new user record is created in PUM (Pega User Management). If you want to retain your past activities and achievements, accounts need to be merged to ensure all old data is reflected in the new account.

Note: We recommend using your organization’s email account as the primary. A personal email account can be used as an alternate, to recover your account, if you change organizations.

The following actions take place when two accounts are merged:

Assume User 1 is merged into User 2:

  1. User 1’s email addresses will be copied as alternate email addresses into User 2.
  2. All data in User 1’s account is cleared, the account status is marked as Merged, and all data moves to the User 2 account.
  3. Once accounts are merged, use the new email address (User 2) to log in to accounts.pega.com where you can see all your past activities and achievements.

Note: Once accounts have been merged, there is no option to unmerge. It may take up to 1 week for all course progress and certifications to synchronize with the merged account.

Start the merge process here.

See this video walkthrough to learn about how to share a tag set: 

Open Accordion Close Accordion

Create tag sets based on an individual product or capability. Be selective when adding more than one tag - the more tags you add, the more specific your notifications become, which will result in fewer content matches. If you are interested in multiple product versions or capabilities, create a tag set for each one. 

 

Open Accordion Close Accordion

The Tag-Set Builder feature of the new notification system replaces any preferences you previously set in My Pega, for the Support Center. The new notifications system allows you to follow content that interests you all across Pega Community, the Support Center, and Pega Academy.

No, your existing Support Center preferences have been migrated to the new system, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications.

Although you can turn off your weekly digest for each individual tag set, we recommend identifying the content or tag-set that is generating the high volume of notifications. You can unfollow content or modify your tag set to make it more granular, and reduce the number of notifications that you receive.
