# Account and identity

*Linking sign in methods and verifying an email.*

One Prophet account can link multiple sign in methods. A common pattern is to start with an external wallet and later add an email so that you are not dependent on having the wallet extension available.

## Adding an email

Adding an email requires verification through a magic link. Until you click that link, the email is not associated with your Prophet account. This prevents someone from attaching an address they do not control to an account.

{% hint style="info" %}
**There is a sixty second cooldown between verification emails**

The throttle limits automated abuse of the email service and protects the sending reputation Prophet needs to keep verification emails out of spam folders. If you did not receive the first one, check spam before requesting another.
{% endhint %}

## What identity does not change

Linking a new sign in method does not change where your funds are. Your assets remain in the same Safe on Polygon throughout. What changes is which credentials can authorise a signature on that Safe's behalf.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Every linked method is an access path**

Each sign in method you link is another way into the same account. Secure all of them, and remove any you no longer use.
{% endhint %}

## 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.prophetmarket.ai/your-wallet/account-and-identity.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.
