# Configuring settings

> How to configure settings for your ClickHouse Cloud service for a specific user or role

export const Image = ({img, alt, size}) => {
  return <Frame>
      <img src={img} alt={alt} />
    </Frame>;
};

To specify settings for your ClickHouse Cloud service for a specific [user](/core/concepts/features/security/access-rights#user-account-management) or [role](/core/concepts/features/security/access-rights#role-management), you must use [SQL-driven Settings Profiles](/core/concepts/features/security/access-rights#settings-profiles-management). Applying Settings Profiles ensures that the settings you configure persist, even when your services stop, idle, and upgrade. To learn more about Settings Profiles, please see [this page](/core/concepts/features/configuration/settings/settings-profiles).

Please note that XML-based Settings Profiles and [configuration files](/core/concepts/features/configuration/server-config/configuration-files) are currently not supported for ClickHouse Cloud.

To learn more about the settings you can specify for your ClickHouse Cloud service, please see all possible settings by category in [our docs](/core/reference/settings).
