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.
Blueprints created using Pega GenAI Blueprint will not be retained during the account merge process. Before starting a merge, we recommend you review your Blueprints on your Blueprint Dashboard. To save your Blueprints, leverage the Download PDF function, found on the Summary page of each Blueprint.
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:
- User 1’s email addresses will be copied as alternate email addresses into User 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.
- 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.
- Log in to accounts.pega.com.
- Hover on your name in the upper-right corner and select My Account Settings.
- In the New Email Address field, enter your alternate email address and click Send Verification.
- You will receive an email to verify the new email account. Once verified, the new email address will be marked as an alternate email.
Note: To confirm the alternate email address has been added to your account, access My Account Settings where you will see your alternate email displayed in the Other Email Addresses area.

Tag Sets
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.
See this video walkthrough on how to share a tag set.
Yes, you can edit a tag set at any time on your notification preferences page by clicking the pencil icon on the tag set that you want to rename.
Notifications
See this video walkthrough to learn about the new notifications system.
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.
Currently, notifications apply only to content that is available to all Community Users. If the mission is restricted to users who are Partners, you will not receive a notification.
Instant notifications are displayed in the Bell icon. At this time, instant email notifications cannot be configured.
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.
