Hiding the Authorized User Email in Arc

By default, Arc displays the email address used to generate the Arc license in the top menu bar. From Arc v3.5.1, this label can be hidden using a setting in settings.yml.


Configuration

Open settings.yml in the Arc installation directory and add or update the following parameter:

hideauthorizeduserlabel: true

The default value is false (email is shown). Set to true to hide it.

Save the file and refresh Arc in your browser — the email label will no longer appear in the menu bar.


Use Case

This setting is useful when Arc is accessed by end users or clients and you do not want to expose the license holder's email address in the UI.
