# General Settings

Learn about all the general settings here

Open your account's **Settings → General** to find the settings below. Domain restrictions live under **Settings → Visibility** and notification recipients under **Settings → Notifications**; both are covered at the end of this page.

#### Account Title

This is the name of the account. Pick something easy to remember, since you may end up with more than one. For instance, if your survey runs on <https://www.mycompany.com>, "My Company" or "mycompany" is a good choice.

#### Preferred Language

Sets the language Zigpoll's AI features use when writing analysis back to you. It defaults to **English** and you can switch it to any language from the dropdown.

This applies to AI features that read and summarize your data, including:

* **Z-GPT Insights** — the weekly AI summaries of Write-Ins
* **Z-GPT Chat** — the conversational AI you can use to ask questions about your data
* **AI-generated action items** on the dashboard

If customers answer in another language, the AI still reads their answers accurately. Your preferred language only controls the language of the AI's reply, not the language of your data.

This setting does **not** affect AI-generated survey content (surveys, questions, or audience profiles built with AI). That content stays neutral so you can tailor it to each survey's audience independently.

#### Account Id

This is your Account ID. Click it to copy it. You may need it for our WordPress plugin, or for custom code that uses our JavaScript API.

#### **Domain Restrictions**

Domain restrictions control which websites your surveys can appear on. Find them under **Settings → Visibility**. You also see this choice when you create an account. If you're not sure, it's safe to allow all domains.

If you choose **Allow Zigpoll to be used on all domains**, your surveys can be embedded anywhere on the web, even on sites you don't own. This is rarely a problem, since few people would want your survey on their website. To lock it down, enter your domain name.

If you enter your domain name, you choose between:

* Include Subdomains
* Match Exactly

**Include Subdomains** covers every subdomain of your domain. For example, if your website is **mystore.com**, this includes **www**.mystore.com, \*\*cdn.\*\*mystore.com, and any other subdomain.

If you want your survey to show up on one specific subdomain only (say **blog**.mystore.com), choose the **Match Exactly** option and enter **blog.mystore.com**.

{% hint style="info" %}
If a survey doesn't appear and your browser console shows `[Zigpoll] Invalid domain name detected. Please check your account settings.`, the page's domain isn't on this list. Add the domain, or allow all domains.
{% endhint %}

#### Notification Recipients

Find this under **Settings → Notifications**. By default all notifications are sent to the account owner. Add one or more email addresses to **Notification Recipients** to send your survey notifications to that list instead. See [Notifications](/notifications.md) for everything else on that tab.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zigpoll.com/accounts/general-settings.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
