Understanding Face Profiles

Face Profiles are the core of Guacamole's biometric authentication. Each profile stores your facial biometric data, allowing the application to recognize you and grant access to your computer. You can create multiple profiles for other users of the device.

A Face Profile contains:

  • Display Name: A friendly name to identify the profile (e.g., "Office Lighting", "Home Setup")
  • Biometric Embeddings: Mathematical representations of your facial features
  • Primary Flag: Whether this is your default profile

Profile Limits

The number of profiles you can create depends on your subscription tier:

Tier Maximum Profiles
Free 1 profile
Pro 5 profiles
Enterprise Unlimited

Troubleshooting

Cannot Create New Profile
