update Streamlit Cloud username after GitHub rename

If you’re creating a debugging post, please include the following info:

  1. Share the link to the public app (deployed on Community Cloud).
  2. Share the link to your app’s public GitHub repository (including a requirements file).
  3. Share the full text of the error message (not a screenshot).
  4. Share the Streamlit and Python versions.
Hi Streamlit team,

I renamed my GitHub account and would like my Streamlit Community Cloud
username (and the "Created by" badge on my apps) to match it.

- Current Streamlit username shown on the badge: dreamdoo2545
- Old GitHub username: mukrata-d
- New GitHub username: mukrata-d05
- Email on my Streamlit account: [your login email]

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the details. Streamlit Community Cloud doesn’t document a self-service way to change the displayed username or “Created by” badge. Its GitHub-coordinate guidance says to delete the app, make the GitHub rename, then redeploy; changing coordinates without preparation can remove your admin access. Community reports indicate a staff-side update may be needed for a profile/badge mismatch (forum example).

For the badge issue, contact Streamlit support and provide the old and new GitHub usernames and your account email privately, not in a public post. The app link, repository, error text, and Streamlit/Python versions are useful for debugging posts, but aren’t relevant to this account-display request.
